Sarah Elwood

Professor and Chair, Department of Geography

University of Washington

A critical GIS for this moment starts by remembering what historically oppressed groups have long known: That making new worlds requires radical imaginaries and intentional ruptures of an oppressive status quo. Emergent theoretical innovations in critical digital geographies are building these new lines of flights, as are creative digital spatial politics that code for life, survival and thriving in marginalized communities.
