Summary:
With this issue, the funambulist offers a critique of their own framework of knowledge production. The concept of “Global South” has been turned into a handy word to lazily designate two-thirds of the world’s earthly area and 90% of its population, thus flattening the millions of specificities that characterize this grouping. It also often embodies an entity that only(...)

Summary:
With this issue, the funambulist offers a critique of their own framework of knowledge production. The concept of “Global South” has been turned into a handy word to lazily designate two-thirds of the world’s earthly area and 90% of its population, thus flattening the millions of specificities that characterize this grouping. It also often embodies an entity that only exists dependent on its alter ego, the Global North. As such, it denies any form of agency to the peoples designated as “the South” independently from their relationship to the “North,” as we examine in the case of the war in the eastern Congo (Josaphat Musamba). The South/North binary also designates borders as lines (rather than as regimes operating on both sides of these lines) and essentializes the difference between sides. Can Blackness and Indigeneity in Abya Yala be read without a fundamental split at the settler colonial line that separates North and Central-South Americas (Ashley Ngozi Agbasoga)? Can 20th century Korea’s history show us that the line that currently separates the north (usually presented as part of the Global South) and the south (usually presented as part of the Global North) particularly illustrates the North/South framework’s lack of complexity (Lina Eunji Chang and Andrei-Sergei Kim)? What kind of colonial violence the Non-Aligned Movement invisibilizes in West Papua (Quito Swan), in Kashmir (Choakkeladd) or Western Sahara (Buhari Lehbib) and, in contrast, what kind of solidarities it allowed from Yugoslavia (Dubravka Sekulic and Sanja Horvatincic)? And, crucially, how can we honor the complexity of politics by being able to hold two contradictory truths together as Micol Meghnagi reminds us in the context of Gaddafi’s Libya and Pan-Arabism.

Summary:
Beginning with a traditional Native oral story, King weaves his way through literature and history, religion and politics, popular culture and social protest, gracefully elucidating North America's relationship with its Native peoples. Native culture has deep ties to storytelling, and yet no other North American culture has been the subject of more erroneous stories. The Indian of fact, as King says, bears little resemblance to the literary Indian, the dying Indian, the construct so powerfully and often destructively projected by White North America. With keen perception and wit, King illustrates that stories are the key to, and only hope for, human understanding. He compels us to listen well.
