Meeting Julia Gibson

Julia Gibson often describes themselves as a farmer-philosopher. I would describe them as the author of some of the most exciting work that’s been recently published about environmental and animal ethics. Her scholarship often weaves together themes such as palliative care ethics and remembrance, the impact and role of narratives and stories, resisting colonialism, and the rights and representation of non-human species in political discourse about environment and sustainability. Julia is core faculty in the Environmental Studies program at Antioch University New England and works the land on her family’s farm in eastern New York. In the first part of our conversation, Julia and I talk about the difficulties that folks often have discussing death and dying, Julia tells me about their approach to philosophical scholarship, and they introduce us to their article, “Climate Justice for the Dead and Dying.” Links: https://www.antioch.edu/faculty/julia-d-gibson/ https://blog.apaonline.org/202....0/11/27/philosophy-a https://thoughtaboutfood.podbe....an.com/e/julia-gibso
