Molemo Moiloa discusses the notion of becoming ungovernable in an effort to tap into our capacities to form new worlds in times of collapse. She shares her interdisciplinary contemporary practice, which centers on land justice and heritage restitution, anchored in South Africa’s histories of resistance and world-building. The talk discusses developing strategies for collective and collaborative processes and forms of knowledge. Building from localized and indigenous understandings, Moiloa draws on the deep connection with and guidance from other parts of the African continent. Moderated by José Luis Falconi (University of Connecticut).
