Join scholar Moya Bailey as she contemplates the state of humanity with a planet that is in crisis. What happens when we take seriously the end of the Anthropocene in our lifetimes or in the lifetimes of the generations just beyond us? What is our responsibility to future generations and the planet itself given this knowledge? This is a speculative talk that asks the audience to consider humanity in hospice and what we want and need as palliative care.
This keynote is presented by Console-ing Passions Conference 2024. It is free and open to the public. All are welcome and encouraged to attend.
Moya Bailey is an associate professor at Northwestern University and is the founder of the Digital Apothecary and co-founder of the Black Feminist Health Science Studies Collective. Her work focuses on marginalized groups’ use of digital media to promote social justice, and she is interested in how race, gender, and sexuality are represented in media and medicine.
