THE SPACESHIP EARTH PODCAST

Episode 90 - Jasmine Qureshi - On Identity, Normativity and Queer Ecology


Listen Later

In this episode I’m in conversation with Jasmine Isa Qureshi - a multimedia journalist, marine biologist, queer ecologist, award winning spoken word / published poet and storyteller.

She writes and studies across ecology, conservation, trans / queer / muslim identity, politics and sociology.

Her work seeks to understand the systems by which we and nature have grown intertwined and apart, explore the intersections of identities, origins as queer, global majority folk, and provide alternative systems for our futures, by sparking discussions, thoughts and creating resources to make these as accessible as possible.

She is currently working on her first book.

We explore:

* Personal identity and its connection to the natural world

* Anthropocentrism and the Human vs nature binary

* Queer Ecology and Queerness - perspectives and misconceptions

* Colonialism and identity and the dismantling of colonial structures to envision inclusive and liberating systems.

* Intersectionality and Global majority futurism

* The necessity of community, interdependence, and the power of unlearning and renewal to craft liberating, inclusive futures free from systemic oppression.
