Abstract

ABSTRACT Centreing an everyday form of human expulsion – defecation – this article demonstrates that toilets produced colonial racial orders in colonial Tanzania through the different excremental mobilities their materialities allowed, including both movement and immobility. It specifically argues that colonial pit toilets affixed excrement to African spaces and helped create a form of minimal technopolitics that expelled infrastructural possibilities from subsequent time periods.
