„Insurgent Ecologies: Resisting Watersheds of Conquest, Enslavement, and Extraction Among the Mississippi River“ engages artwork, projects, and collaborative initiatives across the Mississippi watershed that disrupt systems of racial enslavement, coloniality, diplacement, and industrial encroachment, which rubture space-time to form a „continuum of extractivism.“ Together, they interrogate common assumptions and false solutions while imagining new ecologis that can repair the violence of the „plantationocene“.

Insurgent Ecologies is curated by Imani Jaqueline Brown & Shana M. griffin and organized by Antenna and the New Orleans Center for the Gulf South at Tulane University, with support from the Gulf South Open School, PUNCTUATE, and TU Newcom Art Department.
