Development is violence actively producing impoverishment, epistemic dispossession, and erasing peoples of the Global South knowledges, experiences, and sensibilities. Through a plurality of African intellectual anticolonial and decolonial archives and musical soundtracks of liberation, Murrey and Daley enacts a practice of epistemic disobedience that refuses colonial heteropatriarchal and racial global imaginaries of international aid and humanitarian interventions. Full of intellectual energy and radical love for the learning possibilities of autonomy, communities of struggle and marronage … a must-read’\u003c\/p\u003e -- Dr Rosalba Icaza, Professor of Global Politics, Feminisms and Decoloniality, Erasmus University of Rotterdam, Netherlands\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcknowledgements \u003cbr\u003e Introduction: Learning Disobedience from the Heart of Empire\u003cbr\u003e 1.
