DESCRIPTION:A guest lecture by Professor Nadia Abu Zahra of the University 
 of Ottawa.\n\nAbstract:  The Romans in Carthage (Tunisia today)\, the Engl
 ish turning against their neighbours in the second millennium\, and the Cr
 usaders slaughtering every person in Béziers\, France are all the results 
 of a mentality of disposability. Scholars like Thomas Malthus — whose work
 s are still taught today — asserted that Indigenous nations and confederac
 ies themselves embraced a mentality of disposability. Nothing could be fur
 ther from the truth\, writes professor emeritus Georges Sioui\, who descri
 bes how today’s world could benefit from understanding love for Mother Ear
 th as the basis for all actions. The mentality of disposability permeates 
 today’s discussions of labour\, mobility\, trade and many other current is
 sues. Where can we find inspiration to heed the call of Sioui and others\,
  and what actions would we need to take as a consequence? From the capital
  city of a state that sends bullets to uphold genocide\, guest speaker Nad
 ia Abu-Zahra invites us to consider the paths forward.\n
