Decolonial Dinners: Ethical Considerations of “Decolonial” Metaphors in TPC

Pages 298-310 | Published online: 08 Jun 2021
 

ABSTRACT

The recent uptick in TPC scholarship related to decolonial methods, methodologies, and praxis warrants careful consideration about how this framework is used in TPC scholarship. Using a critique of decolonial scholars, the authors reconsider their use of “decolonial” to describe their experience with urban foraging as a practice that subverts modern Euro-Western foodways. This article uses experiential narrative as a way to theorize about technology as it relates to decolonial perspectives on bodies and nutrition.
