In Critique of Black Reason eminent critic Achille Mbembe offers a capacious genealogy of the category of Blackness-from the Atlantic slave trade to the present-to critically reevaluate history, racism, and the future of humanity. Mbembe teases out the intellectual consequences of the reality that Europe is no longer the world's center of gravity while mapping the relations among colonialism, slavery, and contemporary financial and extractive capital. Tracing the conjunction of Blackness with the biological fiction of race, he theorizes Black reason as the collection of discourses and practices that equated Blackness with the nonhuman in order to uphold forms of oppression. Mbembe powerfully argues that this equation of Blackness with the nonhuman will serve as the template for all new forms of exclusion. With Critique of Black Reason, Mbembe offers nothing less than a map of the world as it has been constituted through colonialism and racial thinking while providing the first glimpses of a more just future.

Using the multiple meanings of "wake" to illustrate the ways Black lives are determined by slavery's afterlives, Christina Sharpe weaves personal experiences with readings of literary and artistic representations of Black life and death to examine what survives in the face of insistent violence and the possibilities for resistance. "In this original and trenchant work, Christina Sharpe interrogates literary, visual, cinematic, and quotidian representations of Black life that comprise what she calls the "orthography of the wake." Activating multiple registers of "wake"--the path behind a ship, keeping watch with the dead, coming to consciousness--Sharpe illustrates how Black lives are swept up and animated by the afterlives of slavery, and she delineates what survives despite such insistent violence and negation. Initiating and describing a theory and method of reading the metaphors and materiality of "the wake," "the ship," "the hold," and "the weather," Sharpe shows how the sign of the slave ship marks and haunts contemporary Black life in the diaspora and how the specter of the hold produces conditions of containment, regulation, and punishment, but also something in excess of them. In the weather, Sharpe situates anti-Blackness and white supremacy as the total climate that produces premature Black death as normative. Formulating the wake and "wake work" as sites of artistic production, resistance, consciousness, and possibility for living in diaspora, In the Wake offers a way forward." --

Slavernij, het verhaal van João, Wally, Oopjen, Paulus, Van Bengalen, Surapati, Sapali, Tula, Dirk en Lohkay. Wat wist een vrouw die leefde en werkte in slavernij over haar ‘eigenaar’ in de Republiek der Nederlanden? Wat wist een suikerraffinadeur in Amsterdam van de omstandigheden waaronder de ruwe suiker die hij verwerkte, was verbouwd? En wat wist een vrijheidsstrijder op Curaçao van de strijd voor gelijke burgerrechten die in Europa werd gevoerd? Onder Nederlands gezag zijn in de koloniale tijd meer dan een miljoen mannen, vrouwen en kinderen uit Azië en Afrika tot slaaf gemaakt en verscheept naar een voor hen onbekende plek op de wereld. Over hun levens is vaak weinig bekend. Aan de hand van diverse bronnen brengt Slavernij tien personen uit deze periode in beeld: mensen die leden onder het slavernijsysteem, die ertegen in opstand kwamen en mensen die ervan profiteerden. Dit brede palet aan individuele ervaringen laat uiteenlopende facetten van de Nederlandse slavernijgeschiedenis zien en geeft ons een bijzonder inzicht in de maatschappelijke werkelijkheid van toen. Tijdens de koloniale slavernij zijn miljoenen mensen gereduceerd tot het bezit van een ander. Van slechts een deel van alle betrokkenen zijn hun levensverhalen te achterhalen. Het Rijksmuseum stelt in een tentoonstelling tien historische personen centraal, bekende en minder bekende. Met deze persoonlijke blik wil het museum de slavernij van gezichten voorzien en de universele, tijdloze relevantie van deze geschiedenis invoelbaar maken. Hoe moeten we ons het harde leven voorstellen van een man in slavernij op een plantage in Brazilië in de zeventiende eeuw? Of het luxe leven van een Nederlandse slavenhandelaar in diezelfde tijd? Of dat van een vrouw die kans zag de plantage te ontvluchten? In deze rijk geïllustreerde publicatie worden de levens van tien personen beschreven die deel uitmaakten van de Nederlandse koloniale slavernijgeschiedenis en die centraal staan in de tentoonstelling Slavernij in het Rijksmuseum. We maken onder anderen kennis met de Afrikaanse João Mina die op een suikerplantage in Braziliëwerkte, met Jonas Witsen, eigenaar van een plantage in Suriname, Untung Surapati, die zich aan slavernij ontworstelde en in Indonesië een nationale held werd, en met de illustere One-Tété Lokhay, die een inspiratiebron was voor de mensen die het slavernijsysteem op Sint Maarten tot stilstand brachten. Door hun verhalen krijgt de geschiedenis reliëf en krijgen we beter zicht op het systeem van slavernij, de ervaring ervan, en hoe mensen toen dachten over vrijheid. In het slotessay wordt de balans opgemaakt: waar staan we anno 2020 in onze omgang met het koloniale slavernijverleden? De tentoonstelling concentreert zich op de Nederlandse betrokkenheid bij slavenhandel en slavernij. De Nederlandse koloniale periode staat centraal, van de 17de tot en met de 19de eeuw, zowel in de driehoek Nederland-Afrika-Amerika, als in de landen rondom de Indische Oceaan waar de VOC actief was.
