beyond the anthropocentricity to the planetarity

 the project of dehumanization is so rife

one need not go so far 

to see its effects on human beings

technological escalation 

certainly has been a resistance tool 

challenging dehumanization

 as well as a tool that

 aids and abets dehumanization 

 through its inbuilt architecture  

as well as use cases

which are largely clouded by misinformation.


How do we engage in the repair 

of the brokenness and

 fragments of our humanity

if not through broadening our scope 

beyond the anthropocentricity

to the planetarity

 by adopting conviviality as Gilroy argues 

coupled up with regenerative knowledges

 from multiplicity of archives

as Mbembe profoundly argues.


The repair has to be through 

an acknowledgement of brokenness

and humility that another person

may have the skills to repair,

reinvent, reimagine a-new.
