ABSTRACT This article offers a reading of the APESHIT music video by the duo The Carters (Beyoncé and Jay-Z) as an Afrosurrealist intervention in the White space of the Louvre. Against the backdrop of calls for decolonizing archives and public institutions such as the university and the museum, and arguing for the political potential of APESHIT, this article makes a case for the music video as an act of resistance against the enduring ‘coloniality of power' in the European museum and elsewhere in the public sphere. We argue that The Carters embrace the role of the public intellectual-activist - assumed to be within the remit of the Western, White, liberal intellectual for centuries. Our argument is threefold: (1) the aesthetics of the APESHIT music video builds on and contributes to the Afrosurrealist artistic tradition, engaging with contemporary Blackness via the strange and absurd; (2) the music video itself creates performance art that intervenes in and extends beyond the Louvre and audiovisually re-curates its exhibitions; (3) The Carters can be seen as celebrity ‘critical organic catalysts’ whose Afrosurrealist intervention targeted at the colonial legacies of museums activates a critical relationship with these museal spaces traditionally constructed as White spaces.

The figure of the intellectual has fascinated and mesmerized generations of thinkers, from Antonio Gramsci to Edward Said, from Michel Foucault to Gilles Deleuze, from Pierre Bourdieu to Jürgen Habermas, from Noam Chomsky to Cornel West, from Nancy Fraser to Gayatri Spivak, from Frantz Fanon to Stuart Hall, from Paul Gilroy to Rosi Braidotti, from Bruce Robbins to Helen Small and from Achille Mbembe to Judith Butler to mention but a few. The intellectual has also been studied from different disciplinary perspectives: political science, referring to the role of publicness and democratic influence; philosophy, concerning the question of truth and rhetoric; gender studies, concerning the divide between public and private and the visibility of feminist interventions; celebrity studies, concerning the role of charisma and stardom; (digital) media communication, concerning the role of new social media platforms and the authenticity, trust and accountability of news online; and postcolonial studies, concerning the question of individuality and collectivity in representing and speaking up for minorities, subalterns and marginalized groups. However, in my view postcolonial intellectuals are not only ‘spokespersons’, to avoid Jameson’s definition of the postcolonial intellectual as an ‘allegory of the third world’. On the contrary, my take on the postcolonial intellectual is to revisit, deconstruct and rethink the category of the intellectual not as universal, individualistic and autonomous but as embedded in collective discursive practices and political engagements. This special issue draws from a two-day international conference that was held at Utrecht University on 5–6 February 2019. The conference, entitled ‘Postcolonial Intellectuals and their European Publics’, was organized to help launch a large new European research network called PIN (Postcolonial Intellectuals in Europe) for which I was the PI. The network is funded by the Dutch Research Council (NWO) in collaboration with several European partners, including prominent centres, institutes and departments in postcolonial studies (among others, the University of Leeds, University of Warwick and Newcastle University in the UK; Utrecht University in the Netherlands; the University of Lisbon in Portugal; Ca’ Foscari University of Venice in Italy; Aalborg University in Denmark and INALCO in France).

The impulse for the recent transformations in the Arab world came from the Maghreb. Research on the region has been on the rise since, yet much remains to be done when it comes to interdisciplinary comparative research. The Maghreb is a heterogeneous region that deserves thorough investigation. This volume focuses on Entanglements as a cross-field and cross-lingual concept to generate a new approach to the region and its inner interdependencies as well as exchanges with other regions. Eminent researchers conceptualize Entanglements through the description of various thematic fields and actors in motion, addressing culture, politics, social affairs, and economics.
