🌱 New paper out! In this article I introduce “expulsion by suffocation,” showing how glyphosate-driven soybean plantations in the Amazon quietly but profoundly unsettle ecologies, livelihoods, and futures. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

📚 Thrilled to share that I’ve signed a contract with University of California Press!! My upcoming book explores the political ecologies of deforestation, practices of resistance and care, and planetary health in the Amazon, with a focus on the Tapajós region.

🚨 Nova publicação — “Carbofascismo” Feliz em compartilhar que meu novo ensaio acaba de sair na Serrote #50. Nele, proponho pensar como regimes autoritários fazem da queima intensa de carbono, da destruição ambiental e do negacionismo climático pilares de ofensivas contra a ordem democrática-liberal

Na próxima segunda-feira vou apresentar no Hospital Universitário da USP um pouco sobre meu trabalho investigando o uso de agrotóxicos na Amazônia, e do que venho chamando de "expulsão por asfixia".

"Sex Is a Spectrum will be important for introducing a wide readership to the nuances of scientific understandings of variability in sex and of the biocultural constitution of humans, and I believe that there is much for biologists to appreciate in the book as well." www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Looking for recommendations: Does anyone know of a good article that synthesizes the policies and violence of the Brazilian military dictatorship toward Indigenous groups? I'm particularly interested in what we call in Portuguese "política assimilacionista"

Just noticed this coincidence: Feb 16 is Reporter’s Day in Brazil, and Feb 17 is International Whale Day. I’m most proud of this story—the whale that appeared in the Amazon. It became a book, with a dream review in Los Angeles Review of Books and coverage in The New York Times. bit.ly/4hZ0Po6
