Posted by jennifer fischer in Uncategorized
- “Modernity’s ‘shine’ is articulated in ways that hide its shadow, or the fact that the very existence of the shiny side requires the imposition of systematic violence on the others.” (Vanessa Andreotti)
- “The link between deep investments in modernity and the role that these investments play in the systemic production of violence must therefore be denied (foreclose) for those who want to continue believing themselves to be good, altruistic people progressing towards a homogeneous future of rational, consensual harmony.” (Vanessa Andreotti)
