Abstract
Feminist political ecologists are making important contributions to political ecology and geography. We summarize the origins and contributions of feminine political ecology (FPE) and chart the benefits of feminist political ecological engagements with post-colonial and decolonial thinking. By tracing the contributions of Black Feminist Thought (BFT) to our understandings of the embodiment of slavery and Black femininity, we argue for FPE to mirror feminist geographers and engage more with Black feminist thinking to deepen our knowledge of how environmental struggles are embodied. We link environmental degradation to racial-sexual disposability and how the afterlife of slavery manifests in the global misrecognition of Black women as less-than-human.
