"This work argues that the everyday, decolonial-knowledge ecologists on the Cape Flats provide important pointers for reimagining the hybridised, precolonial pasts. Ausidi (first-born daughters; female knowledge-keepers) were and continue to be profound intergenerational knowledge-holders of those pasts." from the preface
