Fall 2022 Lecture Series

Imani Jacqueline Brown is an artist, activist, and researcher from New Orleans, now based in London. Her work investigates the 'continuum of extractivism’, which spans from settler-colonial genocide and slavery to fossil fuel production. In exposing the layers of violence and resistance that comprise the foundations of US society, Imani opens up space to imagine a path to ecological reparations. In addition to her artist-activist practice, Imani is presently a researcher with Forensic Architecture, as well as a PhD candidate at Queen Mary, University of London.
