Abstract

Transnational events including worldwide Black Lives Matter protests, #Rhodes Must Fall and university encampments across Europe and the US in resistance to Israel’s occupation and bombing of Gaza have provided momentum for a decolonial ‘turn’ throughout the education sector. By exploring the emergence of anti-racist decolonial themes in Anglo-American geography I argue that the whiteness of the discipline, its roots in colonial modernity, as well as the neoliberal production of whiteness in Higher Education stymies decolonizing agendas. Nevertheless, I further demonstrate how anti-racist decolonial perspectives are being reconfigured by geographers with the potential to rethink geographical theory, pedagogy and practice.
