About AfroFeminist Futures at the End of the Anthropocene

What happens when we take seriously the end of the Anthropocene in our lifetimes or in the lifetimes of the generations just beyond us? What is our responsibility to future generations and the planet itself given this knowledge? This is a speculative talk that asks the audience to consider humanity in hospice and what we want and need as palliative care.

This keynote is presented by Console-ing Passions Conference 2024. It is free and open to the public. All are welcome and encouraged to attend.
