Opis: Fear of Black Consciousness - Gordon Lewis R.
'There is a movement from a suffering black consciousness to a
liberatory Black consciousness in which revelation of the dirty laundry
and fraud of white supremacy and Black inferiority is a dreaded truth.'
Lewis Gordon, one of the leading scholars of Black Existentialism, has
spent decades nurturing
intellectual reflection as a vital component of ongoing activism for
racial justice around the world. In this boldly original book, he delves
into history, art, politics and popular culture to show how the process
of racialization - and its absence - affects not only how individuals
and society perceive Black people but also how Black people perceive
themselves.
Fear of Black Consciousness traces the ways in which the lived
experience of Black people has been rendered invisible in the Western
world and the breadth of rich cultural expression that encapsulates the
truth nonetheless - from ancient African languages to films such as Get
Out and Black Panther. Gordon offers a stunning philosophical and social
critique while highlighting the fundamental role of Black people as
agents of history and of the social change required to build a humane
world of dignity, freedom and respect.
