Conclusion

The book concludes with a meditation on how dawa lishe, as a practice of fostering real possibilities for continuance in a toxic world, begins to compose forms of political and therapeutic sovereignty that support a dispersed ecological body, broad notions of reproductive justice, and innovative articulations of property rooted in an ethics of hospitality. In so doing, these practices decenter the imperial pharmakon and reinvent toxicity and its relation with remedy through vocabularies forged in African histories of healing.
