Differential Dispossession and the White Indigenous Counter-Reformation

Abstract (may include machine translation)

A history of inheritance in the thinking of Karrabing Film Collective, from Belyuen, the small Indigenous community in Australia. Speaking across from Oceania to Alps, to Central Europe via Australia, and finally on zoom between New York and Vienna, Elizabeth Povinelli and Khadija von Zinnenburg Carroll discuss relations to Country through the voices of ancestors. This is a polyphony in an everywhen in which everyone is present. Possessive individuals appear as zombie, while inheritance can also be a way of hearing the consequences of not listening, in a process Elizabeth Povinelli calls the white indigenous counter-reformation.
