The inevitability of this is almost painful!

It’s a variation on what Boaventura de Souza Santos called #epistemicide.
Ramanujan didn’t “discover” math—he channeled it. Cambridge called it genius only after stripping its sacred roots. #Epistemicide #DecolonizeMath
Who else is talking about conceptual framings of ignorance and silencing? I want to dig into the nuances, differences, overlaps, advantages and disadvantages, methodological suitability, etc. of #Disinformation, #Epistemicide, #Agnotology, etc. in applied research contexts! Talk to me if you do too?

When a language falls silent, it isn’t just words that die. It’s a way of knowing.
New academic miniature — a poetic reflection on linguistic extinction and epistemic loss.

Epistemicide erases Indigenous and marginalized knowledge in the US-through forced assimilation, book bans, and silencing diverse voices. Honoring all ways of knowing is vital for justice and inclusion. #Epistemicide #Inclusion #EducationMatters
A great act of resistance in the face of #epistemicide. New College of Florida students archiving their university's past before it's destruction. drive.google.com/drive/u/0/fo...
Epistemicide, the systematic destruction or silencing of knowledge systems, disproportionately affects minority communities. Rooted in colonialism and systemic oppression, devaluing their cultural heritage #Epistemicide #EpistemicJustice #CulturalEquity #KnowledgeMatters #SocialJustice
what the #TrumpRegime is doing to everyone who's not a white cisgender heterossexual man has a name, we're not using it and we should be using it: Epistemic Genocide (aka "the pillars of eurocentric knowledge and rationality" ZEIFERT, A.P.B.; PAPLOWSKI, S..K.; AGNOLETTO, V.]). #USA #Trump […]
#EPISTEMICIDE
Epistemicide refers to the destruction of existing knowledge. It is used within the context of #colonisation which has brought #violence against humans but also involved violence against #indigenous knowledge of the natural world.
#Epistemicide is real.

Occupation forces have arrested our friend #MahmouMuna!
Mahmoud runs one of the best bookshops in #Palestine, the #Jerusalem-based #EducationalBookshop.
They kill our people!
They bomb our universities!
They destroy our books!
This is #EPISTEMICIDE, the "killing of knowledge"!
Anyone interested in the politics of knowledge production, especially its #epistemology / #epistemicide, #power/knowledge and #subjectivation should check out this starter pack on #EpistemicInjustice: it's currently a bit psych-heavy, mixing it up would be productive!

Why do some epistemic frameworks of scholarly 'orthodoxy' produce '#failure' in their scholarly & political Others? How is that failure elided so that it doesn't challenge orthodoxy but reproduces it, legitimizing the #epistemicide of alternatives?
ntm:
#Microsoft -as of right now as I write these words- doesn't recognise #Scholasticide & #Epistemicide as nouns.
This is immoral linguistic censorship, indicative of ongoing 'western' knowledge erasures via #Colonialism #Imperialism and the under-our-noses erasure of arab cultures.

Silence is causal: doing and saying nothing has consequences.
Absence is causal, too: it leads to #epistemicide
