    A beautiful explanation of a horrifying concept. From my naive perspective, Spivak is up there as one of the most impressive and inspirational erudites of our world, and yet I find your channel to be one of the most approachable and open means for understanding and appreciating the teachings of those such as her and her philosophical peers. Many of the most powerful concepts are diluted by overly verbose academic literature, and you do the world a service by presenting them in a clear and understandable way. Thank you very much, and I wish you all the best in your upcoming new chapter.

    Thank you, sir. Insightful indeed :) please do suggest some articles on epistemic injustice/ violence... especially from the Indian sub-continent.

    I was so into the talk that I start imagining the term in some of my real life scenarios

      Thank you. I guess it has real-life ramifications both in individual and collective terms.

    That's very well explained sir. I would like to have your views on whether transculturalism/transnationalism is a solution or curse to the post colonial regions. Regards

    Hello sir, could you please provide us with a list of all the secondary sources you discuss in this video? It would really help some of us. Thank you so much for these videos. They are so useful.

    Would recuperation be considered a form of epistemic violence?

    • @masoodraja

      Thank you. In what sense are you using the term?

      @@masoodraja Thank you so much for responding! I picked up the term from listening to people talk about Mark Fisher and Capitalist Realism, but I think it came from Guy Debord originally? So that's the sense I *think* I mean it in. 😅
      The specific example in my mind right now is how Dr Martin Luther King's image has been absorbed by American popular culture with all his radical and controversial ideas removed.

      @@BrassicaRappa My understanding of recuperate is from postcolonial studies and there it means recovering lost knowledges so in that sense I don’t think it will qualify as epistemically violence. I don’t see the term used by Mark Fisher.

      @@masoodraja Thank you so much again for the reply! I'll have to remember that definition as I continue to blunder into the world of postcolonial studies...I'm getting my education mostly from internet videos, and it's easy to cross disciplines very quickly and get confused by the terminology. I have these concepts floating in my head - recuperation, hermeneutical injustice, and now epistemic violence, that all seem to be floating around a similar idea inside of cultural hegemony. But I'm always so afraid because every term has such a deep history in its own discipline that I don't really have full access to as an outsider. 😅😬
      It's such a privilege to be in a time and place where I can have such easy access to all these resources though!
