Description: Humanity's Last StandConfronting Global Catastrophe Author(s): Mark Schuller, Cynthia McKinney Format: Hardback Publisher: Rutgers University Press, United States Imprint: Rutgers University Press ISBN-13: 9781978820883, 978-1978820883 Synopsis Are we as a species headed towards extinction? As our economic system renders our planet increasingly inhospitable to human life, powerful individuals fight over limited resources, and racist reaction to migration strains the social fabric of many countries. How can we retain our humanity in the midst of these life-and-death struggles? ? Humanity?s Last Stand dares to ask these big questions, exploring the interconnections between climate change, global capitalism, xenophobia, and white supremacy. As it unearths how capitalism was born from plantation slavery and the slaughter of Indigenous people, it also invites us to imagine life after capitalism. The book teaches its readers how to cultivate an anthropological imagination, a mindset that remains attentive to local differences even as it identifies global patterns of inequality and racism. ? Surveying the struggles of disenfranchised peoples around the globe from frontline communities affected by climate change, to #BlackLivesMatter activists, to Indigenous water protectors, to migrant communities facing increasing hostility,?anthropologist Mark Schuller argues that we must develop?radical empathy?in order to move beyond simply identifying as ?allies? and start acting as ?accomplices.? Bringing together the insights of anthropologists and activists from many cultures, this timely study shows us how to stand together and work toward a more inclusive vision of humanity before it?s too late.
