DESCRIPTION:Tuesday, June 4th 2024 (8:00 AM - 9:30 AM PT / 11:00 AM - 12:30 PM ET / 
 5:00 PM - 6:30 PM CET) \n\nIn 2024, democracy is on the ballot, a principal 
 story told by anxious news outlets worldwide. \n\nYet, this focus on 
 democracy's precarity obscures other urgent matters: the rise of AI and its 
 challenge to a humanist account of intelligence, the rumoured demise of 
 liberalism, the BRICS power bloc rivaling the US dollar, environmental 
 crises reinforcing colonial logics, and international law's failures to 
 rise to the moral occasion of the destruction of Gaza. \n\nSmaller moments 
 reveal other worlding events and the idea of a pluriverse with diverse 
 moralities and systems. Are this year's events just about a threatened 
 ideology of belonging, or do they hint at other stories and possibilities? 
 \n\nJoin the Democracy & Belonging Forum of OBI for our next mbari session, 
 where OBI Global Senior Fellow Bayo Akomolafe will engage with author, 
 sociologist, and environmentalist Ashish Kothari to discuss the 
 sociomaterial, political, spiritual, and civilizational events shaping our 
 time. \n\nRegistration is free. A link to gain access to the virtual event 
 will be sent via email before the event. Forum members will have exclusive 
 access to engage with Bayo and Ashish virtually after the conversation 
 takes place in a private Zoom room. \n
