Mais que e para-além do racismo: meditações teóricas e políticas sobre anti-negritude

Abstract

This article keys in on antiblacknessand distinguishes it from racism, laying bare the false universality of the Social and the Human: racism takes place in the Social among the Human, while antiblackness continually casts Black people and Blackness out of those foundational modern categories whose definitions derive from the violent expulsion. To delineate, the article analyzes two paradigmatic texts that strive to deal uncompromisingly with antiblackness but through the language of racism: George Yancey's Who Is White?and "The Combahee River Collective Statement." The article concludes by suggesting the need for a Fanonian leap of invention and an all-encompassing abolition.
