With increasing intensity, migrants and host communities are engaging in political action, practices, and relations of solidarity and care. Sanctuary cities have become a political battleground for immigration policy, yet sanctuaries beyond current U.S. cities have long been sites of care for those in transit, where affective and more-than-human solidarities converge. These “affective solidarities” are also infusing feminist theory with new forms of political praxis. What types of knowledge and ways of knowing are manifested in, or have emerged through, migrants’ ethical and care-relational practices? What is the meaning of relational care in touch with sacralized sites of passage and pilgrimage? What potential do these knowledges and practices have to destabilize restrictive global regimes of mobility and methodological nationalism. In this class we learn from human and more-than-human migrations through the lenses of feminist theory, STS, eco-social studies, and migrants’ and activists’ affective solidarities, discussing contemporary experiences and scholarship at the intersections of care, solidarity, ethics, and politics while considering ethnography’s role in advancing relational care beyond borders. As a key aspect of my seminars, students are expected to ‘activate’ the readings and assigned material through designing their own pedagogical tool.
