@realrvw #13: Climate justice and Colonial Reparations | Page59 - by Darcy Thomas (available at the @tate bookshop)

“One of the greatest finds for me whilst writing this was the fact most of us were taught geography in school using a map that was created to reflect flat earth. Which meant that countries and continents true dimensions and sizes were distorted and made to look smaller OR larger than they actually are. This is why Russia seems bigger than Africa. When in fact Africa is 1.77 times larger. The colonial lens has distorted the vision of people across the globe for so long and in my view has contributed to some of our warped perspectives of ourselves and our motherlands. According to climate clock we have less than 7 years to change how we live and save our planet.

If we are to understand how we have been tricked into ruining our own planet in order to make the slave masters more and more money… We must look back to move forward. @j_self has gracefully placed a timeline of crucial events within my article (slide 5) to give you better understanding of our history.

Previous writers include @aiww, @virgilabloh, @studioolafureliasson, @extinctionrebellion and many many more. To be asked to pen my views and opinions on such an amazing subject and to be placed amongst this cohort of pioneers and great thinkers is a true life goal and I’m super grateful to have been asked to contribute.

This is my first published article of the year and also my last project of the 2022… and it is such an honour to be featured in this magazine.”

(Since writing this article the map has now been changed but the climate clock still ticks..)

I reported for Dispatches, in this bafta winning episode we looked at trainers, recycling, consumerism and green washing. This program changed the legislation around greenwashing in 2022.

Food for thought:
“My culture and community… the black community heavily uses the phrase “drip or drown” when describing fashion. The irony is, it is our drip that is making our planet drown.

The system is also set so it is our native lands which suffer from it the most.”
