We sit down with Dr. Aby L. Sène to discuss African wildlife conservation as it's practiced by the west in Africa. Sène covers how African Wildlife conservation is another extension of European colonialism including militarization, enclosure, and primitive accusation. Essentially conservation serves as a front for colonialism. 

Dr. Aby Sène-Harper is a faculty of Parks and Conservation Area Management. She is a trained interdisciplinary environmental social researcher whose work advances socially and ecologically just approaches to managing public lands, natural and cultural resources in the US and in Africa. Her research lies at the intersections of parks and protected area governance, livelihoods, nature-based tourism, and Race and nature.
