In exciting conversations with academics, artists, journalists, and activists, we shed a critical light on colonialism's affective lives and afterlives. Together with them, we discuss the urgent struggles of our time and the different visions of how to decolonize our present. Find out more on our website: https://affect-and-colonialism.net
