Uncovering Possible: Pedagogies for apocalyptic times is an edited volume holding our experiences as educators, activists, and community members navigating the global pandemic of the past several years. This pandemic is situated within the context of ongoing interconnected crises: oppressive systems, worsening climate, and economic urgency, all at an unsustainable pace. The work in this volume faces the grief, loss and injustice that apocalypse brings, as well as engaging with possibility and intentional, resilient joy necessary to build a better world. This volume is an invitation to explore both the impacts of this and many other apocalyptic events in learning spaces, as well as (re)imagine what’s essential to learning in community.
This apocalypse is situated in a social context that transcends this one event. For many, apocalypse has, and continues to happen through colonial white-supremacist capitalism. What we carry forward must include the collective knowledges capable of carrying us not just through this apocalypse but the apocalypses ahead.
