This episode of the Urban Political Podcast’s Series on Urban polycrisis explores the ways in which Cartagena, a coastal city in the Colombian Caribbean, has been shaped by centuries of overlapping crises. What are the complex spatio-temporal dynamics of racialised urban transformations in the city? And what does that mean in practice? How do forms of colonial violence and dispossession, racial politics, tourism-led development, displacement and migration intersect to shape life in the city today?

Join us as our special guests, Colombian writers and historians Javier Ortiz Cassiani and Orlando Deavila Pertuz, take us through past, present and future perspectives on urban racial politics and overlapping crises in Cartagena.
