Race, Time, And Utopia - Critical Theory And The Process Of Emancipation

by William M. Paris

~~21,19€~~ 19,07€ 10% OFF

 Racial injustice, at its core, is the domination of time. Utopia has been one response to this domination. The racially dominated are not free to define what counts as "progress," they are not free from the accumulation of past injustices, and, most importantly, they are not free from the arbitrary organization of work in capitalist labor markets. Racially unjust societies are forms of life where the justifications for how to organize time around life, labor, and leisure are out of the hands of the dominated. In Race, Time, and Utopia, William Paris provides a theoretical account of utopia as the critical analysis of the sources of time domination and the struggle to create emancipatory forms of life. Rather than focusing on inclusion and equality before the law, as found in liberal theories of racial injustice, Paris analyses the neglected "utopian" tradition of justice in black political thought that insists justice can only be secured through the transformation of society as a whole. This transformation is nothing less than the democratic transformation of how organize and narrate our shared time. Bringing into conversation the work of W.E.B Du Bois, Martin Delany, Marcus Garvey, Frantz Fanon, and James Boggs with the critical theory of Karl Marx, Ernst Bloch, Rahel Jaeggi, and Rainer Forst, Paris reconstructs a social theory and normative account of forms of life as the struggle over how time will be organized, asking "Can there be freedom without a new order of time?"

Beauvoir And Belle - A Black Feminist Critique Of The Second Sex

by Kathryn Sophia Belle

~~25,39€~~ 22,85€ 10% OFF

 Kathryn Sophia Belle centers feminist frameworks, discourses, and vocabularies of Black women and other Women of Color that existed prior to and have continued to exist after The Second Sex. She centers and amplifies the voices of Black women and other Women of Color, such as Lorraine Hansberry, Angela Davis, Chikwenye Ogunyemi, Deborah King, OyA*rA nkA(c) OywA'mA-, Mariana Ortega, Kathy Glass, bell hooks, Kyoo Lee, Stephanie Rivera Berruz, Patricia Hill Collins, and Alia Al-Saji. Special attention is also given to Claudia Jones and Audre Lorde, both of whom implicitly and indirectly engage with The Second Sex. Beauvoir and Belle demonstrates the myriad ways in which these frameworks both expose and surpass the limits of The Second Sex. Belle argues against the frameworks of oppression used by Simone de Beauvoir in The Second Sex, a foundational text of white feminist philosophy. She frames Beauvoir's analogies as limitations, and shows how Beauvoir either does not engage with Black women and other Women of Color-or engages with them in problematic ways. Belle explores how Black and other Women of Color have critically written and talked about The Second Sex, and in so doing exposes the ways in which the existing Beauvoir scholarship has mostly ignored these engagements, thereby replicating Beauvoir's exclusions.

Single Black Mother - Queer Reflections On Marriage And Racial Justice

by Anika Maaza Simpson

~~22,07€~~ 19,86€ 10% OFF

 Unmarried Black mothers in the United States face a precarious existence. Their precarity reflects the deep-seated ills of anti-Black racism, systemic poverty, disenfranchisement, and state violence that adversely impact the daily lives of most Black Americans. Scholarly and popular discourses across racial boundaries reflect the prevalence of negative judgements of those Americans. These discourses illuminate the vulnerabilities particular to unmarried Black mothers, who are, more often than not, held blameworthy for their diminished life conditions. Single Black mothers, however, are not parasitic problems in need of eradication. The institution of marriage is the problem. Contemporary debates on marriage are often situated within feminist philosophy, queer philosophy, and critical race theory, but sustained engagement within Africana philosophy is virtually nonexistent. Single Black Mother fills this gap and corrects the impoverished narrative of single Black motherhood by engaging the following questions: How has the American marital institution served to confine political, moral, and economic capital amongst elites to the detriment of unmarried Black mothers and their families? How should considerations of anti-Black racism inform our deliberations concerning the role, if any, the state should undertake regarding intimate relationships? How can we affirm the matrifocal dyad as a productive site of racial justice? Anika Maaza Simpson here offers an original and novel contribution to the canon of Africana philosophy, and the philosophical literature on marriage. Arguing that non-normative families, specifically families headed by unmarried Black women, should be regarded as generative sites of moral worthiness and liberation practices. Single Black Mother deploys a queer Black feminist lens to illuminate the multiple vectors of harm, inclusive of material, moral, and political harms, that serve to undermine the freedom of unmarried Black mothers existing outside of the state marital regime.

Race And Racism - A Decolonial Approach

by Linda (Professor Of Philosophy, Professor Of Philosophy, City University Of New York) Martin Alcoff

~~27,03€~~ 24,33€ 10% OFF

free shipping

 Alcoff here offers an analysis of racism and a path toward anti-racism that puts the history of colonialism at the center. The current rise of ethno-nationalism on both sides of the Atlantic is focused on migrants as the source of nearly every social problem. She argues that the far right can only be forestalled by directly addressing the Replacement Theory and the difficult implications of colonialism's continuing effects on global relations. White identities have been based in false histories, yet the truly varied experiences of whites are not well represented in the myths that grounded racial supremacy. Race and Racism maintains that If we face the truth about our histories, and understand them with more accuracy and nuance, we can formulate a way forward in unity.
