Building Worlds Beyond Modernity’s Double Fracture: A Discussion with Azucena Castro & Malcom Ferdinand

Azucena Castro is featured on the latest episode of the Speaking Out of Place podcast, hosted by Professor David Palumbo-Liu (Stanford University), in conversation with Malcom Ferdinand. The discussion explores what Ferdinand calls the “double fracture”—the environmental division separating humans from the biosphere and the colonial division rooted in supremacism and patriarchy. It also examines how art, film, and poetry in Azucena Castro's work resist and reimagine these oppressive frameworks. Speaking Out of Place is an influential public humanities project that amplifies scholarly, artistic, and activist voices confronting systems of oppression.
