The Post-Racial Limits of Memorialization: Toward a Political Sense
of Mourning attempts to show how post-racial discourse, in general,
and post-racial memory, specifically, operates as a context through
which the memorialization of anti-black violence and the production
of new forms of this violence are connected. Alfred Frankowski
argues that aside from being symbolically meaningful, the
post-racial context requires that memorialization of anti-black
violence in the past produces memory as a type of forgetting. By
challenging many of tenants of the critical turn in political
philosophy and aesthetics, he argues against a politics of
reconciliation and for a political sense of mourning that amplifies
the universality of violence embedded in our contemporary
sensibility. He argues for a sense of mourning that requires that
we deepen our understanding of how remembrance and resistance to
oppression remain linked and necessitates a fluid and active
reconfiguration relative to the context in which this oppression
exists.
