A continuation of the previous discussion of decolonial praxis, this panel refocuses on personal practices and personas that are intimately involved in the dismantling of surrounding colonial regimes. alea adigweme will introduce short excerpts of her creative work that re-situates and challenges Christian/colonial regimes through queer black-femme contemplation. Kelly Panchyshyn will discuss the practice of wild plant harvesting in her hometown of Whitehorse, Yukon, with a focus on how female harvesters foster an association between their herbalist practices and the persona of the witch that encourages and honours a connection to the land and the histories of indigenous and racialized peoples. Emma Croll-Baehre and Gina Snooks will engage in a creative-scholarly dialogue about the implications of land-based spiritual and creative practices on unceded Indigenous lands.
