Dr. J. Kameron Carter, professor of Religous Studies at Indiana University, Bloomington and renowned author will present the webinar "From the Religion of Whiteness to Religion Otherwise."
This Newcombe Lecture (presented by the department of Religion and Culture at the University of Winnipeg) engages cultural theorist W.E.B. Du Bois' idea that Whiteness (another word for which is "settlerism") is a religion--indeed, that it is apocalyptic cosmology. Du Bois' creative writing will be considered for the understanding it advances of Blackness as postapocalyptic poetic living--an alternate, even fugitive way of being with the earth that hosts new relationalities, new socialities after Whiteness, or religion otherwise.
