The African Studies Global Virtual Forum seeks to decenter hegemonic epistemologies and decolonize the Western canon to facilitate other ways/waves of knowing. Through a series of online conversations, participants in the forum challenge the notion of the “universal truth” and discuss how the only universal truth is the truth of complexity. To decolonize knowledge, epistemic perspectives need to be pluralistic in ontologies, cosmologies, and insights, and the emergence of Epistemologies of the South is one such response to the decolonial turn. Joining us from around the world, our speakers discuss the multiple approaches taken in the humanities and social science scholarship to decolonize knowledge by paying attention to complexities and heterogeneities in disciplinary formations.
