The forest is being emptied – of the trees and other plants that comprise it, the animals that enliven it, and of the myths and meanings that animate it. Macarena Gómez-Barris explores militarisation, resource extraction and other corporate and state projects of expanding colonialism upon Indigenous territories in the Americas.
Will anything we might call 'nature' be left intact?
Western is a partner in the Sydney Environmental Humanities Lecture Series at the Australian Museum. Western staff and students can book $10 tickets with the discount code: HNUni.
