Critical Digital (Counter)Placemaking

Notes

1 We here use counterplacemaking in reference to the Indigenous countermapping practices discussed above. It is important to note that countermapping (and thus counterplacemaking) is an action done from an Indigenous positionality, not a settler one (Iralu, 2021). Consequently, while all of our students may be engaging in critical placemaking, not all students are engaging in critical counterplacemaking, hence the parenthetical construction in the title of this piece.
