Western failure: teaching people that confidence is a substitute for real knowledge. #DecolonizeKnowledge #CriticalThinking
Ask the average person about Asia,
And they will quote Western documentaries, Western pundits, Western textbooks, Western fears.
They will speak confidently about cultures they have never studied,
Peoples they have never met,
Histories they have never heard,
Because the West taught them that confidence is a substitute for knowledge.
Why African Scholarship is the Missing Piece in Global Innovation.

Thinking Africa with V.Y. Mudimbe
Africa has long been viewed through a distorting lens. To truly know it, we must dismantle the myths and rethink from within. #Mudimbe #DecolonizeKnowledge #AfricanThought

Mudimbe challenges us to break free from the colonial "epistemic cage." Thinking Africa anew isn’t just reflection—it’s liberation. #DecolonizeKnowledge #Mudimbe #AfricanPhilosophy

If "science" is European and hence colonial, then surely "STS" as a field is also European and hence colonial?

Just presented on decolonizing knowledge production in forced displacement studies at the 23rd Annual Africa Conference @UTAustin. Exciting conversations and critical insights on transforming research paradigms. #AfricaConference #DecolonizeKnowledge #ForcedDisplacementStudies

According to Indigenous scholars, their partners, and their allies, there are 5 important methodological features of Indigenous knowledge translation. Have you heard of these 5 features?-NK #indigenouswaysofknowing #decolonizeknowledge #ethicalspace #participatoryresearch
Local innovators hold the key to solving the toughest #globaldev challenges. It's time to rethink our notion of who qualifies as an 'expert.' #decolonizeknowledge #inclusivedevelopment #localknowledge #communitydriven #SDGs #yangeafrica
@AbySene9 A great question.. and those same journals are largely inaccessible to people outside academic institutions, preventing much of the global population from even being able to read them, much less participate in the conversation. #DecolonizeKnowledge
We must be able to protect our people and our knowledge. They are equally Namibian ‼️

Welches "Wissen" Teil eines Wissenschaftskanons ist und welchem Wissen durch wen Vorrang gegeben wird, ist auch Ergebnis kolonialer Kontinuität und Dominanz.
@SnoepNanette und das @rjmkoeln brechen diese Kontinuität auf.

Research generated in Africa by Africans is integral to #DecolonizeKnowledge. For the 4th #CAIROBI conference, @DAAD_Germany is calling for abstracts on research that interrogates social, economic, natural and cultural realities. Learn more on https://t.co/dFzAyk8Obd

You know African knowledge is colonized when you have to spend time in a European country to study archival material on African communities.
We are slapped in the face by epistemic violence everyday. #DecolonizeKnowledge
Oh really?!
Funny how this might come to a surprise to some. Academia as well as human rights, free speech etc. are made from white ppl for white ppl. The root of the problem lies where this fact is being IGNORED.
