Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references and index. Summary:  "'Hospicing modernity'published by nonprofit North Atlantic Books committed to a bold exploration of the relationships between mind, body, spirit, culture and nature presents a discussion by a Latinx professor at the University of British Columbia on how we must face the multiple crises of modernity, interrupt and retire damaging modern behavior patterns, and reimagine how we learn, unlearn, and respond to crisis. Drawing on her mixed family history and the work of her arts/research/ecology collective, Machado de Oliveira invites us to develop the stamina to face difficult an painful things together with more maturity, sobriety, discernment, and accountability and to learn to activate senses and sensibilities that have been exiled by modernity and that can help us to sense, relate, and imagine otherwise."
