Deconstructing Indonesia
@deconstructindo
An intellectual and social history of the birth and life of a nation. Every week at Columbia University (Zoom provided!)
Thanks to 100 folks joining the "Deconstructing Indonesia" first session! 🥳 Around 20 people offsite at Columbia University and the rest via Zoom. If you missed yesterday's session, here is the recording youtu.be/GCHKp9M8jRg?si…
How do we see it in relations with other indigenous groups and also non-indigenous communities? Looking forward to see you all at 19.00 WIB or 07.00 EDT this Friday on Zoom! The link will be shared in our group chat as per usual! Also, a little sneak peek for the class 👀
Indigeneity is a negotiated and complex concept. This week, with @gegerriy, we will unpack various cases from Indonesia on how indigeneity can be both relations and strategies; how do people utilize the idea and practice of indigeneity in their daily life?
What if everything you've been taught about education is actively complicit in the world's deepest crises? We will confront the uncomfortable truth that mainstream education, especially STEM, has been a weapon of coloniality.

Historical conjuncture among different cultures, contexts, and people shapes Indonesia as an idea & a community. That web of relations is also what constitutes the idea of indigeneity as a political term. What does indigeneity mean? How does it emerge in the context of Indonesia?
Join us this week as we wrap up our first module with an exploration of one of the distant frontiers of Indonesian identity and those who inhabit that uneasy space: the Chinese in Indonesia. Also a little sneak peek 👀
Nationalism is an inherently unifying and totalizing force. But what happens when other identities begin to encroach on certain visions of what it means to be Indonesian?
Join @deconstructindo, a student-led group, for a discussion of the National Revolution of Indonesia with a focus on the clashing writings of two giants of the revolution: Sutan Sjahrir and Tan Malaka. buff.ly/BvSHY4b
Over the past several weeks we’ve worked towards the idea of Indonesia with a colorful cast of characters that “dreamt and prayed in Dutch.” But what of the vast majority of Indonesians who didn’t? Join us this Thursday at Columbia University or online deconstructindo.com
