"Dr. Khayyat’s talk will share urgent truths from the grounds of being resistant amidst ceaseless wars in South Lebanon. Here, rooted communities defiantly confront seasonal military assaults by imperial and settler-colonial war-machines as the intentional destruction of life. War is lived across decades as repeated environmental devastation upon the land, its dwellers and keepers, who together confront methodical annihilation and enduring occupation through defiant acts of return and repair. Speaking from the shattered grounds of the present amidst the immediacy of ongoing wars and occupation and so-called ceasefires, the talk brings to light the multi-species ecologies that resist and survive endless seasons of scorched-earth devastation in South Lebanon."
