Rewriting the pernicious, enduring relationship between blackness and animality in the history of Western science and philosophy, Becoming Human: Matter and Meaning in an Antiblack World breaks open the rancorous debate between Black critical theory and posthumanism. Through the cultural terrain of literature by Toni Morrison, Nalo Hopkinson, Audre Lorde, and Octavia Butler, the art of Wangechi Mutu and Ezrom Legae, and the oratory of Frederick Douglass, Zakiyyah Iman Jackson both critiques and displaces the racial logic that has dominated scientific thought since the Enlightenment. In so doing, Becoming Human demonstrates that the history of racialized gender and maternity, specifically antiblackness, is indispensable to future thought on matter, materiality, animality, and posthumanism.
Jackson argues that African diasporic cultural production alters the meaning of being human and engages in imaginative practices of world-building against a history of the bestialization and thingification of blackness - the process of imagining the Black person as an empty vessel, a non-being, an ontological zero - and the violent imposition of colonial myths of racial hierarchy. What emerges is a radically unruly sense of a being, knowing, feeling existence: one that necessarily ruptures the foundations of “the human”.

“a history of the bestialization and thingification of blackness - the process of imagining the Black person as an empty vessel, a non-being, an ontological zero”
Sounds like what liberals do every time the find a Black person who disagrees with them, titles like “Uncle Tom” or “the Black face of White supremacy” and worse start flying…

Thanks for chronicling the efforts of lazy&greedy merchant free labor obsessed slavers and their descendants unceasing attempts at erasing the 99.99999% ancestral source of modern humanity. That’s .00001% accounts for low melanin climate base or Cline phenotype adaptations for low UV sun regions of the globe.

If you are believers of ancient allegorical story tellers who could not conceive of germ theory. These people of the moon sized 30.37 million km² African garden of Eden are the only Direct descants of Adam.

@zombie13 as opposed to Conservatives, who seem to think the only black people worth listening to are those who agree with them that black people are inherently violent and should be considered second class citizens.
Don’t start the lazy stereotypes game. You’ll always come off worse for it.

Such Silly nonsense. Look at the Asians and Middle Easterners in the USA who are successful and live a decent standard of living or better. No oppression there, because they have families which have BOTH parents to properly raise their kids, there children graduate high school and go to college, they provide meaning and value to our society. In the 1960’s, black families that had both parents were 80-90% Now its less than 30%. Whatever happened there is the main cause of all this “oppression”. Their problem is cultural 100%. No one is oppressed, just lazy.

ethno-narcissism is a helluva drug
all this black cope - somehow thinking your very existence in this world should be on everyone’s mind, every waking moment.

Zakiyyah Iman Jackson is a very brave person. She could go live to any of the multitude of mono-ethnic Muslim-majority black countries any time and enjoy it there. And yet she chose to suffer the oppression in a private university of Southern California so others wouldn’t have to. Isn’t that brave of her? We, her brethren in Africa living off of $1 a day, are so grateful that Zakiyyah keeps pushing Gender and Racial studies forward. She’s like a contemporary black Socrates, who’s get executed for telling the truth on the market square; because among the oppressed she’s the oppressest.

Unironically, imagine wasting your time reading this crap or, even worse, spending more than 10 hours to listen to it. I don’t believe such people exist.
