On Comparative Settler Colonialisms: J. Kēhaulani Kauanui and Rana Barakat

Presented by the American Studies Program in the NYU Department of Social and Cultural Analysis. Co-sponsored by the Asian/Pacific/American Institute at NYU and NYU Center for the Study of Gender and Sexuality. 

Globally, settler colonialism is a present reality not confined to its violent history. The continuing impact of settler colonial practices and institutions continues to shape our political, economic, social, and cultural present. J. Kēhaulani Kauanui (Wesleyan University) and Rana Barakat (via Skype from Birzeit University, Palestine) will examine this global reality by thinking comparatively across settler colonial landscapes including the Americas, the Pacific Islands, South Africa, and Palestine.
