  • It’s not often in academia that I feel heard and given a call to action that is both practical and authentic. This course introduced me to marronage as a foundation towards anti-colonialism. Through an analytical lens of the ‘long-movement’, Yannick manages to challenge popularized ideals of liberal thought with sharp criticism, wit and humor. The course is structured around readings, but its essence is serious critique delivered through sharp humor and honest conversation.

  • Yannick changed everything I thought I knew about radical pedagogy. His courses consistently challenged students to see differently, read differently, and act differently. As both a teaching assistant and student, I found Yannick’s classroom to be a space of generative, provocative, and courageous questioning.

  • Yannick’s course stands out as one of the most transformative educational experiences I’ve had. Through probing questions and dialogue, he challenged widely accepted constructs that empires use to self-legitimize and that liberal discourses rely on to stifle resistance. 
    Yannick creates a uniquely candid space for students to push beyond the rigid boundaries of academia. He expanded my perspective and equipped me with sharper tools to debate and resist.
