The Waste Commons (2025)
The Waste Commons reveals the intricate lifeworlds and recycling networks built by waste pickers since 1968 at Dakar’s dump, Mbeubeuss. Adja and Zidane, two waste pickers who are emerging as leaders contesting the erasure of their community, guide us through the dump’s material, social, and spiritual worlds.
