Diaspora Ecology: A medicine will examine colonial roots and post-colonial remedies for climate change. The story will be told by tracing textile routes and traditions. This perspective frames the Triangle Slave Trade as a climate change driver that displaced people, radically altered ecological systems, and was the blue print for contemporary industrial production (Marya & Patel, Inflamed: Deep medicine and the anatomy of injustice. Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2021; Patel & Moore, A history of the world in seven cheap things: A guide to capitalism, nature, and the future of the planet. University of California Press, 2017). Katharine Hayhoe describes global weirding as the discernible extremes in weather. ‘Global warming—an increase in the average temperature of the planet—isn’t something we notice directly in our daily lives. What we do notice, though, is global weirding’ (Hayhoe, The Nature Conservancy, 2021). In Central Texas where I live, global weirding happened in the deadly cold temperatures and ice accumulation of Winter Storm Uri when thousands of people lost power for days (Thompson & Reader, A year later: Looking back at Texas 2021’ winter storm. KXAN, 2022). Conversely it has also been felt in the alarming heat waves that are dangerous for people without housing, and construction workers (Douglas & Schumacher, Texas Tribune, 2023). I work with community gardens in Austin Texas. During the summer of 2023, the ground was so dry that waterlines broke as the ground cracked and shifted. Small animals chewed through drip irrigation lines seeking water.
