Over Settler Nationalism in America

This podcast develops a settler colonial interpretation of "American Architecture" using concepts from settler colonial theory, cultural studies, and architectural history. Each episode interprets one architectural case study found in the University of Texas at Austin's Alexander Archives. This research was completed by students enrolled in an architectural history elective course in the School of Architecture.

aflevering The Ninth Ward, New Orleans artwork

The Ninth Ward, New Orleans

This episode examines the Lower Ninth Ward as a case study in the ongoing structure of settler colonialism and its impact on land, vulnerability, and community displacement. Rather than treating Hurricane Katrina as an isolated tragedy that impacted the Lower Ninth Ward, Shannon Lee and Gabriela Garza explore how disasters like this reveals deeper historical patterns: indigenous dispossession, racialized settlement after emancipation, political infrastructure like levees, and redevelopment policies that classify land as valuable while treating communities like expendable resources. Drawing on ideas of scholars such as Patrick Wolfe and Lorenzo Veracini, the episode argues that settler colonialism is not a past event, but a living structure that organizes land around capital, extraction, and occupation. This was first through labeling of indigenous land as vacant, then through the unequal provision of infrastructure to Black residents, and finally through post-Katrina redevelopment that frames the neighborhoods as a blank slate. The episode expands beyond New Orleans, connecting the Lower Ninth Ward to other sites of disaster and dispossession such as Houston’s 2017 floods, Maui’s 2023 fires, East Palestine, Ohio’s chemical derailment, and Port Arthur’s industrial exposure. Across these cases, the hosts highlight a recurring logic: land and capital are protected while certain communities are exposed to harm. Listeners will learn how settler colonial logics persist in policy, planning, environmental risk, and urban redevelopment, and how questioning these logic is essential for pursuing land justice and equitable rebuilding.
