Welcome! My name is Tobold Rollo. I am a PhD candidate in the department of
political science at the University of Toronto. I specialize in political theory, specifically democratic theory, and Canadian politics. In my research I am primarily concerned with how the privileging of speech, language, and deliberation in the theory and practice of democratic politics can entrench rather than disrupt certain forms of relations of domination, most notably colonial relations between settler and Indigenous communities.
I currently live on the traditional territory of the Songhees people (Victoria, BC) with my wonderful partner and daughter.
