The Caribbean is understood to be highly vulnerable to the impacts of global climate change, such as changes in sea levels and temperatures, the increase in frequency and magnitude of storms, droughts, flooding, coastal erosion, and more. This course engages with different political, material, embodied, and affective aspects of climate change throughout the Caribbean and explores the root causes of these impacts. Critical disaster scholarship and climate justice scholarship reminds us that processes of climate change are inextricable from the violent processes of (neo)colonialism, racism and racialization, patriarchy, homophobia, and ableism. This course considers the intersectional, socio-historical contexts that (re)produce vulnerabilities in Caribbean contexts as it considers local agency and solidarity and local and global movements for justice and reparations.
