This course interrogates the 鈥渙fficial鈥� definitions and narratives that shape our understanding of the environmental crisis, first by exploring how climate change, the Sixth Mass Extinction, and The Anthropocene have been defined, and then through exploring their roots, the political ramifications of these definitions, and the groups who have been traditionally left out of the institutions that define these terms. Turning to these voices, we will problematize the 鈥渙fficial鈥� and institutional understanding of these concepts, learn how Indigenous communities have been affected by the climate crisis, how they are working for resilience, and how they reimagine our current moment not just as one of apocalypse, but also one that inaugurates a new beginning.
