Talks

In this presentation, I engage with the African body that lands on European beaches via the Mediterranean sea, dead by exhaustion from crossing the ocean or dead as a consequence of boarding a vessel, which has capsized because it was not equipped to carry the embodied subject identities of Africans leaving the continent to seek refuge on the European continent: the continent of the European coloniser who had usurped African land and people, kidnapped African labour starting in the fifteenth century whilst simultaneously exploiting and extracting raw materials to develop its wealth in an ailing, starving, and disease infested Europe.
