____________________________
On “Is Racism an Environmental Threat?”:
The ecological crisis is the most overwhelming to have ever faced humanity and its consequences permeate every domain of life. Ghassan Hage examines its relation to Islamophobia as the dominant form of racism today, showing how both share roots in domination, colonialism and the logics of capitalism. Proposing that both racism and humanity’s destructive relationship with the environment emanate from the same mode of inhabiting the world, Hage gives voice to the claim taking shape in many activist spaces that anti-racist and ecological struggles are intrinsically related. In each the aim is to move beyond what makes us see otherness, whether human or nonhuman, as something that exists solely to be managed.
