Description:

As the AAG honors Cindi Katz’s distinguished contributions to geographical knowledge production, we (her advisees and students, past and present, from the CUNY Graduate Center) convene these panels to create space for discussing her scholarship. Katz has carved out new political imaginaries for radical scholarship, tracing a countertopography of justice across disparate fields of critical inquiry and geographic research. At once structural and situated, her work offers critical and interconnected insights into the problems, processes and possibilities of social change, an investigation she undertakes both within the academy and in the broader social justice communities with whom she works. We offer various accounts of how Katz has encouraged each of us to take on critical and overlooked questions of social reproduction as part of a geographic analysis of capitalism.
