In this surprising and wise conversation with Bayo Akomalafe Ph.D, we learn how to see the defeat of the neo-liberal agenda in a new light. We begin to see what is possible when human dominance and control are removed from the center of life and our lives. Dr. Akomalafe’s vision for the future imagines a true and deep sanctuary for what is broken, hidden, afraid, and even “monstrous” in ourselves. Being defeated in “getting things right” then becomes a liberation from an oppressive master-slave dynamic that continues to inhibit our programs of antiracism, climate justice, and closing the wealth gap.
