Aníbal Quijano
The Peruvian sociologist Aníbal Quijano is widely considered to be a foundational figure of the decolonial perspective grounded in three basic concepts: coloniality, coloniality of power, and the colonial matrix of power. His decolonial theorizations of these three concepts have transformed the principles and assumptions of the very idea of knowledge, impacted the social sciences and humanities, and questioned the myth of rationality in natural s…
On Justice, Pedagogy, and Decolonial(Izing) Praxis
This paper goes beyond — transcends — “pedagogy as justice,” recognizing that justice, particularly in these present times, may not be enough. Its wager is with pedagogies of and for life ; pedagogies that plant and cultivate, that push and enable other modes of living, despite the capitalist‐modern‐colonial‐racist system, beyond the system, and in the system's margins, borders, fissures, and cracks. These pedagogies, as Catherine Walsh argues he…
Rising Up, Living On
Catherine E. Walsh examines social struggles for survival in societies deeply marked by the systemic violence of coloniality to identify practices that may cultivate the possibility of living otherwise
Ancestral plantings. Knowledge in the AfroPacific
In this text, Juan García Salazar and Catherine Walsh draw from and extend portions of their conversations begun a number of years ago about the sowing and re-sowing of knowledge and life in the communities of the Colombo-Ecuadorian region-territory of the AfroPacific. The conversation invokes and thinks with a third voice, that of Grandfather Zenón, considered the Grandfather of all those beings who reside in this territory. It is Zenón’s voice …
(Re)existence in times of de-existence
How are we to think about pedagogy and education in these present times when existence itself is in tension and question? As the pandemics of COVID-19, systemic racism, capitalist greed, and land-based plundering, displacement, and dispossession work together to reconfigure power and, relatedly, formal education, most especially in the Global South, what might it mean to think from and shift our gaze toward the decolonial ‘cracks’? How do these ‘…
Decolonial learnings, askings and musings
The sounds of helicopters day and night, police-mounted horses stampeding, the cries of children, youth, and women and men of all ages, and gas bombs exploding still ring in my ears, now three mont
(Decolonial) Notes to Paulo Freire
On Decoloniality
In On Decoloniality Walter D. Mignolo and Catherine E. Walsh explore the hidden forces of the colonial matrix of power, its origination, transformation, and current presence, while asking the crucial questions of decoloniality's how, what, why, with whom, and what for. Interweaving theory-praxis with local histories and perspectives of struggle, they illustrate the conceptual and analytic dynamism of decolonial ways of living and thinking, as wel…

Affirmative action(ing)s and postneoliberal movement in South America and Ecuador
In South America, a region with one of the highest levels of racial and income inequality in the world, race-based affirmative action is newly visible and forcefully emergent. This text explores affirmative action's manifestation, conceptualization, and expression most especially in the region's progressive states, in governments that purport to break with neoliberalism and construct different social, political, and economic orders. Its concern i…
Pedagogy and the struggle for voice
Preface Series Introduction: Rethinking the Pedagogy of Voice, Difference, and Cultural Struggle by Henry A. Giroux The Tensions of Voices Past and Present: Colonization, Schooling and Linguistic Imposition The Rudiments of Voice: Towards an Understanding of Dialogic Opposition The Power and Meaning of Words Bilingualism, Pedagogy, and Voice Bibliography
The Construction of Meaning in a Second Language
U Preliminary results from a study the author is currently conducting in an urban area of western Massachusetts demonstrate that most Puerto Rican children have difficulty relating the English language sociocultural reality to that of their native language and home. As Elam (1972) explains, differing rates of language learning act as cues to the general level of a child's emotional adjustment and the resolution of cultural identification and conf…
