A reading, writing, discussion, and practice workshop based on the book Hospicing Modernity: Facing Humanity’s Wrongs and the Implications for Social Activism by Vanessa Machado de Oliveira. Together, we’ll: • Reimagine how we learn, unlearn, and respond to crisis; • Expand our capacity to hold personal and collective space for difficult and painful things; • Understand the “5 modern-colonial Es”: Entitlements, Exceptionalism, Exaltation, Emancipation, and Enmeshment in low-intensity struggle activism; • Interrupt our satisfaction with modern-colonial desires that cause harm; • Create space for change driven neither by desperate hope nor a fear of desolate hopelessness.
