AB  - In an era tainted by genocide and ongoing colonial violence within the United States, Palestine, 
and beyond, U.S. academia operates within a neoliberal carceral framework that suppresses 
dissent and restricts academic freedom. How can epistemology and decoloniality counteract the 
carceral politics embedded in U.S. higher education institutions? The punitive, individualistic 
nature of the carceral culture of the U.S. settler colonial state undermines justice, transformation, 
and collective liberation. Within this system, academic repression, policing, and surveillance 
impede the autonomy and intellectuality of scholars, particularly those resisting epistemicide and 
advancing decolonial thought.
The neoliberal university prioritizes compliance, shame, and institutional control, often under the 
guise of accountability, while disregarding any genuine processes of restoration and 
collaboration. This squashing of dissent not only limits the possibilities for critical scholarship but 
also reinforces a broader societal trend that privileges policing and punishment over 
transformative justice. 
By interrogating institutional epistemology and the structures that prolong this academic 
silencing, we may discover alternative frameworks that foster collaborative knowledge 
production grounded in the cultivation of truth and justice. Collectively we may imagine and 
strategize ways to resist carceral logics in academia and build decolonial epistemic spaces beyond 
both extractivism and silencing.
