  \n\nSpeakers \nProf. Bernard Perley \n\nDescription: \nALIENATION: THE UN
 SETTLING STATE OF INDIGENOUS TRANSLOCALITYSARS-CoV-19 has upended everyone
 ’s lives.  The world we once knew has become alien to us.  Despite the uph
 eaval, anthropologists and Indigenous communities are well-positioned to 
 lead the transition in a post-COVID world.  This current COVID crisis is l
 ess a reset moment and more a reckoning of the slow violence of colonialis
 m.  We have all endured a world alien to us this past year and many hope t
 hings will return to normal.  COVID has laid bare the inequities of “norma
 l” and the disorders inherent in New World ideologies.It’s been 518 years 
 since Amerigo Vespucci wrote his Mundus Novus letter (1503) inscribing the
  lands of the Indigenous peoples of the western hemisphere as the “New Wor
 ld.”  This pernicious shibboleth has been recycled over the centuries to r
 einforce ideologies of discovery, conquest and erasure of Indigenous peop
 les and their ancestral worlds.  Today, over 500 years of colonial/settle
 r disorders are culminating in the self-inflicted slow violence of New Wor
 ld disorders such as global warming, rapacious capitalism, ongoing colon
 ialism, and misguided globalization.  These disorders contribute to unset
 tling translocal conditions prompting entire populations to grapple with a
 n increasingly alien world.How do we imagine moving forward?  Anthropologi
 sts and Indigenous peoples have seen this before and developed collective 
 strategies for remediating the centuries of forced Indigenous translocalit
 y.  New World ideologies alienated Indigenous peoples from their ancestral
  worlds and for over a century, anthropologists worked together with Indi
 genous peoples to remediate the cartographies of erasure colonial/settler 
 societies inflicted on the Indigenous peoples of the “New World”.  We are 
 poised to survive a New World Disorder and a fourth world anthropology can
  lead the way. \n\nCategories \n Colloquium Series \n\nAudiences \n Alumni
