What is Saltwater Reasonings?

Saltwater Reasonings is a space for critical conversation, reflection, and collective knowing. This listening library hosts podcasts and audio essays rooted in resistance, and in deep dialogue with thinkers, practitioners, and communities across the Global South.

Grounded in the Caribbean tradition of reasoning, relational, embodied, and insurgent, this space brings together students, scholars, and community collaborators who are reimagining what it means to teach, research, and practise from sites of struggle and care.

Built on the belief that knowledge lives in community, in the body, and in the questions we carry between us, Saltwater Reasonings holds space for dialogue on research justice, trauma-informed praxis, and the unfinished project of decolonial education.

We don’t just cite theory: we live and remake it.

We speak across waters, between disciplines, generations, and geographies of resistance, to honour knowledge that is accountable, situated, and alive.

 

Season 1 Episodes

Season 1: Memory, Method, and Care

Season 1 of Saltwater Reasonings unfolds across four thematic waves and twenty-five conversations, all held with women whose work spans scholarship, art, activism, pedagogy, and community care.

Together, these conversations form a listening library grounded in Global South and diasporic ways of knowing.

Moving through method, memory, marginality, and care, the season centres women as producers of theory, archives of memory, and practitioners of emotional and political labour. Season 1 approaches knowledge as relational, embodied, and accountable, asking what we know, how we listen, remember, and how we care.
