"Beyond the Coloniality of Gender: María Lugones, Sylvia Wynter, Decolonial Feminism, and Trans and Intersex Liberation," by Alex Adamson. Abstract: This article explores Sylvia Wynter’s analysis of gender as a category differentially applied across the global color line and María Lugones’ account of the coloniality of gender. While Wynter’s and Lugones’s work offer consequential insights for queer, trans, and intersex studies and activism, they have deliberately engaged these particular discourses and histories of struggle in limited ways. Wyn- ter analyzes the contradictions of Western feminists’ organizing against female genital cutting in Africa, but she does not link her conclusions to their ramifica- tions for activism against genital cutting on children deemed intersex. Lugones uses the existence of intersex people as a turning point in her critique of Aníbal Quijano when developing her concept of the coloniality of gender, but she does not go further to connect global intersex activism and decolonial feminist struggles. This article explores the work of Wynter and Lugones for their compatibility with trans and intersex studies and activism, and the places where their work can be furthered through insights from trans and intersex studies. It concludes that to move beyond the coloniality of gender requires trans and intersex liberation and that trans and intersex liberation must be understood in a broader decolonial feminist framework. Keywords: decolonial feminism, Sylvia Wynter, María Lugones, trans studies, intersex studies

Yesterday, we had the privilege of hearing Dr. Cristina Ros i Solé discuss autoethnography as a decolonial tool in intercultural research. A thought-provoking discussion with much to unpack. Let’s keep the conversation going! #Research #DecolonialStudies #Interculturality

My new article for @krisisjournal.bsky.social shows how the depiction of artificial consciousness in @annaleen.bsky.social's novel Autonomous offers a new vantage on the search for a decolonial representation of the human. krisis.eu/article/view...

Même mon libraire généraliste s'était rendu compte que le bouquin était une daube, blanche, désignant une part infime des decolonial studies.
Mais JF Schaub pense autrement 🙄

Not that wowed by one of the new British Museum Trustee choices TBH.
It seems an odd time to be appointing to the board people who are decidedly non-neutral on matters relating to the restitution of cultural artefacts.

"If we live in a US hegemony, where US-based media, academia and culture dominates the conversation, then it’s only logical that the examples & omissions come mostly from Americans writing about their interests." "Asian F2P MMOs like MapleStory and Fantasy Journey to the West have always been more popular than World of Warcraft, but prejudice erased that. Also, it did not benefit Western developers, journos and academics to concede that they weren’t the centre of the MMO world. So you have decades of academic works that are aware of the size of Asian titles but do not engage with them. This led subsequent works to also ignore them — after all, if they were important, surely the reference works would’ve examined them, right? Today, we have gacha — a different type of free-to-play. And things only got worse. The dire situation of games media and academia means few new voices get added to the conversation. A lot of the media discourse seems stuck in 2012, with the same people talking about the same games to the same audience, with the same biases and interests." "To this day there are LAN Houses and game clubs in Brazil where people gather to play PS2 soccer games modded with updated teams — the legendary Bomba Patch, arguably the best-selling game in Latin America." Image of a PlayStation 2 game cover with called "SUPER BOMBA PATCH 2025", with three soccer players wearing Brazilian team jerseys on a stadium background. Subtitle says "Super Bomba Patch 2025 - 100% atualizado!" "The first video games were technological experiments and hobby projects, shared freely in disks, code sheets and magazines around the world. Corporations formed over time, but this hacker culture never went away — it carried over to BBS games, MUDs, Freeware, browser games, Flash games, mods, homebrews, open-source projects, crackers, emulators, demoscenes, fangames, MisTER, bootleg consoles & games, RPG Maker, BYOND, AGS, Ren’Py, bitsly, etc… All of those are continuously erased by the “industry” side, which enforces a formalized, sanitized, easily digestible and — especially — fully monetized concept of video games. That’s why Counter-Strike is considered a “real game” but Bomba Patch isn’t."
