This book grounds particular struggles at the curious interface of
skin, body, psyche, hegemonies and politics. Specifically, it adds
to current [re]theorizations of Blackness, anti-Blackness and Black
solidarities, through anti-colonial and decolonial prisms. The
discussion challenges the reductionism of contemporary polity of
Blackness in regards to capitalism/globalization, particularly when
relegated to the colonial power and privileged experiences of
settler. The book does so by arguing that this practice perpetuates
procedures of violence and social injustice upon Black and African
peoples. The book brings critical readings to Black racial
identity, representation and politics informed by pertinent
questions: What are the tools/frameworks Black peoples in
Euro-American/Canadian contexts can deploy to forge community and
solidarity, and to resist anti-Black racism and other social
oppressions? What critical analytical tools can be developed to
account for Black lived experiences, agency and resistance? What
are the limits of the tools or frameworks for anti-racist,
anti-colonial work? How do such critical tools or frameworks of
Blackness and anti-Blackness assist in anti-racist and
anti-colonial practice? The book provides new coordinates for
collective and global mobilization by troubling the politics of
"decolonizing solidarity" as pointing to new ways for forging
critical friends and political workers. The book concludes by
offering some important lessons for teaching and learning about
Blackness and anti-Blackness confronting some contemporary issues
of schooling and education in Euro-American contexts, and
suggesting ways to foster dialogic and generative forums for such
critical discussions.
