The forum brings together anthropology and philosophy researchers to extract
developments of the book “A decolonial ecology: thinking from the Caribbean world”, by
Malcolm Ferdinand. Two round tables will be dedicated to the main concepts and
issues of the book, composing a repertoire that articulates themes such as the racial issue,
Anthropocene, quilombola ecologies, Caribbean world, environmentalism and cosmopolitics. The
event ends with a conversation between Malcom Ferdinand and the thinker and farmer
quilombola Antônio Bispo.
