How are intimate Black geographies practiced? Incontestable? Necessary?
We're a group of Black geographers based in the United States and the UK who study Black geographies. Recently, we collaborated on a collection called, "Incontestable: Imagining Possibilities Through Intimate Black Geographies" in the Transactions of the Institute of British Geographers.
For this virtual salon, join us for a conversation about making this collection. We'll talk about how we gathered virtually amid Covid-19 and the heightened global movement for Black lives. We'll talk about how the experience shaped what we wrote and crafted for the collection. And we'll consider how intimate Black geographies matter - for now and for the future.
