All research methods can align with or against colonialism, as all research methods have land relations. Even when researchers are working toward benevolent goals such as environmentalism, conducting environmental science and activism is often premised on a colonial worldview and access to land. In this lecture, Dr. Max Liboiron will draw on their new book Pollution is Colonialism, including discussing some of the strategies used by their anticolonial scientific laboratory, CLEAR, to put good land relations at the forefront of research and laboratory culture.
