06/09/2022Decolonial Europe. An antiracist, anti-capitalist and
> anti-imperialist feminist approach
>
> *Lecture by Françoise Vergès / Q & A: Ľubica Kobová and Zuzana Maďarová*
>
> *September 6, 7 pm, tranzit.sk <http://tranzit.sk/>*
>
> The event will be held in English
>
> In Discourse on Colonialism (published in French in 1955), anticolonial
> political leader and Martinican poet Aimé Césaire wrote: *"Europe is
> indefensible”* because it had justified, in the name of its *“superior”* civilization,
> genocides, massacres, slavery, colonization, extractive economy destructive
> of the environment, the deportation of millions of Africans and the
> dispossession and exploitation of millions of people around the world.
>
> European’s blindness to its crimes meant that they could not understand
> that *“Colonization works to decivilize the colonizer, to brutalize him
> in the true sense of the word,”* in other words, that its ideas, regimes,
> social making would be inevitably contaminated by racism. Thus, Europe
> could not understand that, sooner or later, they would have to enter their
> own decolonial process.
>
> Today, the multiplication of zones of non-being, the return of
> extreme-right parties in parliaments, the anti-refugee politics, the
> counter-offensive against women’s and LGTBQI+ rights, the murderous racism
> against Black, Roma, Muslim and indigenous communities, the government’s
> deafness in face of climate disaster, the return of war on the continent,
> shatters European narrative of having been protected from colonial
> ideologies and universalism.
>
> *“Decolonization is a program of total disorder,”* wrote decolonial
> theorist Frantz Fanon. Revolutionary disorder (which is not chaos) is an
> answer to the disorder that capitalism endlessly produces. In this
> contribution, Françoise Vergès will discuss how the idea of Europe was
> colonial (even on the continent itself), why the decolonization of Europe
> as an antiracist, anti-capitalist and anti-imperialist struggle is urgent,
> and what decolonial feminism can bring to the struggle against the
> permanent war on peoples and the earth.
>
> *Françoise Vergès* is a Franco-Reunionnese political theorist, feminist,
> independent curator, public educator and decolonial activist currently
> living in Paris. Her work focuses on colonial slavery as an anti-Blackness
> regime, psychoanalysis, the (impossible) decolonization of the Western
> museum, republican coloniality and decolonial feminism. Her latest books
> are A Decolonial Feminism (2020/2021), A Feminist Theory of Violence, A
> Decolonial Perspective (2021/2022) and De la violence coloniale dans
> l’espace public (2021). She has directed movies on Caribbean authors Aimé
> Césaire and Maryse Condé, curated exhibitions, and convened workshops with
> artists of color. She is a co-founder of the non-profit Decolonize the arts
> (2015-2022) and of its open university.
>
> *Ľubica Kobová* teaches at the Department of Gender Studies of the
> Faculty of Humanities of Charles University in Prague. Her research focus
> is on feminist political thought and its history and feminist understanding
> of work and work ethics. She is a member of the editorial board of
> Contradictions: A Journal for Critical Thought and cooperates with Aspekt,
> the Feminist Publication and Educational Project based in Bratislava.
>
> *Zuzana Maďarová* is a researcher at the Faculty of Social and Economic
> Sciences at Comenius University in Bratislava, collaborator with the
> feminist educational and publishing organization ASPEKT. Her research
> focuses on gender aspects of political subjectivity (in history and
> present), political communication, and the conservative turn in political
> discourse.
