Guilherme Dantas Nogueira will present stories about subalternized people, beings, and ecosystem scenarios from the Brazilian past, brought together by the waters of the Velho Chico (Saint Francis River), whose vital energy has coexisted with resource exploitation since colonial times. These stories provide meaning to traditional communities’ current struggles for sustainability of natural resources and ecological well-being, as well as the projection of future horizons beyond this pattern of human and environmental degradation. The talk will value and point to alternative references to historiography and official national geography and will touch on Latin American social theory, coloniality, neoliberalism, the extermination of biodiversity, and discrimination based on class, race, gender, and other factors.
