What does democracy and belonging mean in the context of the Anthropocene, amidst warming skies, broken floodgates, pandemics, red tide algal blooms, bleached reefs, and migrant borders?

Join the Democracy & Belonging Forum on Thursday, July 6, 2023 (8:00 AM - 9:30 AM PT / 11:00 AM - 12:30 PM ET / 5:00 PM - 6:30 PM CET) for the next mbari in the ongoing series The Edges in the Middle, where OBI Global Senior Fellow Bayo Akomolafe will speak with Minna Salami and Professor Madhulika Banerjee about the changing body of democracy, the moral and architectural limitations of the concept, and what we might do together to instigate new forms of being-together that are responsive to the times and the intelligence lost when politics are animated exclusively by people.
