tilde;ones presents “Life After Rhetoric: Unrealism in
Colonial Times”
The talk is a meditation on the possibi
lities of augmenting pluriversal futures. The politics of our current mo
ment, with the escalation of human induced climate change, call for a re
orientation in the ways we do rhetoric. Unrealism, both as a problem and
a possibility, is a response to the limits of colonial times we were bo
rn to live. By reflecting on my own story of migration, the histories of
friars that narrate European invasion upon the lands and waters of Orig
inary nations, and the traces of resilience from a colonial archive, my
dissertation Undocumented Times: Rhetorics of a Colonial Moment a
sks us to imagine beyond the confines of the politics of intelligibility
.
