Vanessa Machado de Oliveira: Hospicing Modernity (2021, North Atlantic Books) 5 stars

This book is not easy: it contains no quick-fix plan for a better, brighter tomorrow, …

deeply unnerving

5 stars

Uncategorizable and deeply examined. Elements of anti-colonialism and anti-capitalism, other ways of being and more-than-human, self-examination and introspection, personal stories of academia indigeneity and systemic harms, care and careful humility and sober reflection on our dependence on exploitation. To face and embrace modernity within yourself and in the kindest sense of hospice to sit with it through an uncertain death. If or when this is for you, strongly recommended.
