SUMMARY:TLS: Mapping as Decolonial Praxis: From Algeria to Palestine and Ha
 waii
DESCRIPTION:New York\, New York. Part of the Society of Fellows' Thursday L
 ecture Series "Alternatives/Concessions"\n\nThis talk will give a glimpse 
 into Dr. Joudah’s ongoing research and book project which focuses on how
  indigenous communities use mapping as an imaginative decolonial praxis. S
 tarting with the remapping of pre- and post-independence Algeria as inspir
 ation and a nodal point of inquiry\, the study grows to a comparison of co
 ntemporary countermapping efforts for Palestine and Hawaii. These various 
 creative processes range from archiving\, the design of reconstructing des
 troyed villages\, to the embodied imagining of protest and land restoratio
 n – all of which stand as testaments to indigenous duration.\n\nSpeaker\
 n\nNour Joudah is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Asian Ameri
 can Studies at UCLA and a former President’s and Andrew W. Mellon Postdo
 ctoral Fellow in Geography at UC-Berkeley (2022-23). Dr. Joudah completed 
 her PhD in Geography at UCLA (2022)\, and wrote her dissertation Mapping 
 Decolonized Futures: Indigenous Visions for Hawaii and Palestine on the e
 fforts by Palestinian and native Hawaiian communities to imagine and work 
 toward liberated futures while centering indigenous duration as a non-line
 ar temporality. Her work examines mapping practices and indigenous surviva
 l and futures in settler states\, highlighting how indigenous countermappi
 ng is a both cartographic and decolonial praxis. She also has a MA in Arab
  Studies from Georgetown University\, and wrote her MA thesis on the role 
 and perception of exile politics within the Palestinian liberation struggl
 e\, in particular among politically active Palestinian youth living in the
  United States and occupied Palestine.\n\nPlease email disability@columbi
