@suetim talking about what we have learned from the @sariheza project on decolonising the curriculum @SOEBristol

[Sue Timmis @suetim]

De Sousa Santos - Rankings have destroyed the global coherence of universities @sariheza @SOEBristol @DrLisaLucas @cmontgo84143270

[Sue Timmis @suetim]

De Sousa Santos- importance of not separating colonialism and capitalism- deeply connected @SOEBristol @DrLisaLucas @sariheza @cmontgo84143270

[Sue Timmis @suetim]

De Sousa Santos ‘Knowledge of the winners is what is taught in universities , knowledge-of the ‘losers’ is never available in universities , it is left out = epistemicide ‘ @SOEBristol @sariheza @DrLisaLucas @cmontgo84143270

[Sue Timmis @suetim]

De Sousa Santos - a monoculture of differences hides hierarchies - can we defend difference without hierarchies?’ Also we are subject to a monoculture of time = linear time and speed, other conceptions of time are not valued @SOEBristol @sariheza @DrLisaLucas

[Lisa Lucas @DrLisaLucas]

Boaventura De Sousa Santos asks ‘Why should we defend the public university and where are the social forces that will defend the public university?’ @sariheza @SOEBristol @suetim
