Extending these insights, the panel turns to spectral ecologies—those environmental phenomena that resist capture by conventional materialist logics…spectral ecologies register environmental presences that flicker at the edge of perception, destabilizing linear notions of time, space, and matter 2/4

Feminist and multispecies perspectives—from Anna Tsing’s notion of more-than-human socialities to Astrida Neimanis’s hydrofeminism and Michelle Murphy’s decolonial chemical relations—have offered anthropology tools for rethinking human-environment relations as…entanglements that exceed the human 1/4

The reason that the US is locking up tourists for weeks in hellish detention centers rather than letting them book tickets back home is because the detention centers are owned by corporations. They are charging the taxpayers fortunes to cage these people, and making bonanzas off their suffering.

Thank you! It’s indeed a pretty uniquely inspiring spot! I’m currently working on a manuscript that has a longer chapter exploring the energy center. I do have an article about a different pilgrimage site that came out a few years ago if you’re interested: journals.openedition.org/emscat/5119

I'm proud of this collection of online essays on "religion and energy" published by @religionssrc.bsky.social.

In addition to the introductory essay, there are pieces on healing energies in rural Mongolia, lithium mining in Bolivia, and electrical salvation.

Climate Futures
This topic focuses on two key questions: what is the relationship between religion and climate change? And what kinds of alternative climate futures can we imagine through the lens of religion?
