OxTalks is Changing
On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
An introduction to Critical Caste and Technology Studies with Dr Murali Shanmugavelan
Please see the registration link below for attendance at this event.
Questions around the impact of race, imperialism, and coloniality have become more urgent in Media, Culture and Communication and Internet studies in response to calls such as ‘decolonise the academy’ and ‘Black Lives Matter’. Unfortunately, the same has not been true about caste, even though caste affects a fifth of the world’s population. Critical Caste and Technology Studies offers a communication-, media-, and technology-based critique of contemporary caste narratives. This talk will make a case for academic recognition of CCTS and set out a road map for the research agenda.
