What if the most dangerous forms of violence do not explode, but unfold slowly, invisibly, over time? In this episode, we speak with political geographer Shannon O’Lear about slow violence, the gradual harms caused by environmental degradation, structural inequality, and the politics of knowledge production. Drawing from her work in critical geopolitics and environmental security, O’Lear challenges dominant narratives in climate science, unpacks the role of institutions like the IPCC, and explores how to make invisible suffering visible.
