Abstract

Paper presented at the American Educational Research Association Annual Meeting

In this Poetry as Truth Performance we pop new propositions to DeSchool the Trumpedupness of our democracy. With modes of multiplicity, we present a fresh Illichian simplicity for conviviality. Our pedagogy of public praxis presents two points: 1. A Post Apoco-Poetic-Mode and Alternative Analysis of Illichian ‘Truth.’ 2. A Radical Departure, Re-Iterative Reemergence, & Revolutionary Re-Searched Revival to Promote Public Sphere Scholar-Activist Survival! We mix art, eco-activism, and scholarship to take the SIG deeper into its own roots. Illich’s Truth shines in our call for forest garden archaeologies and civic communal Earth-kind divine. This novel creation space-place time sets us on a new super slow wavelength sublime.
