Abstract:The Menominee have long tapped into and cocreated energy flows within ecosystems, particularly with maple trees. The United States, however, seized nearly all Menominee land, transforming ecosystems into industrial systems, including for maple sugar. Moreover, thermodynamic ideas of energy rendered more-than-human beings into "the ability to do work." Many Menominees, however, have understood "energy" in the more-than-human world from a grounded, relational perspective, guided by an ethical system of reciprocity and an intellectual tradition of interconnectedness. Energy studies has critically examined how societies and cultures are entangled with energy systems, particularly fossil fuels. More research, however, on settler colonialism's impacts on ecological energies from perspectives beyond thermodynamics would greatly strengthen the field. We therefore make three major arguments. First, American settler colonialism is an act of environmental injustice that violently appropriated vast stores of energy, or wealth, embodied in the Menominee's ancestral lands. Second, the Menominee consistently adapted to and resisted colonization by utilizing their ancestral knowledge systems and interspecies ethical frameworks while appropriating dominant science and technology to further their goals. Finally, sugar maple trees provide a material example from which to incorporate an Indigenous energy theory into the study of settler colonialism.

The Dialectics of Abolition Lisa Lowe (bio) Ruth Wilson Gilmore has devoted decades to the study of the prison-industrial complex and to organizing for its abolition, and her profound contributions have become cornerstones of carceral studies and the prison abolition movement owing to their compelling explanatory power. Her famous formulations that "capitalism requires inequality and racism enshrines it"1 and that "racism is the state-sanctioned or extralegal production and exploitation of group-differentiated vulnerability to premature death"2 have become indispensable for scholars, students, and activists. Now, three decades of her essays are available to inspire new generations, meticulously collected and introduced by Brenna Bhandar and Alberto Toscano. It is a daunting task to attempt to briefly highlight Gilmore's contributions to our understanding of the conditions that lead to prison expansion and the abolition imperative, but I trust that collectively, this forum may highlight a range of them. In my comment, I emphasize the profoundly dialectical thinking and practice that underlie Gilmore's invaluable work on the buildup of US prisons in the 1980s, and the significance of her situating this expansion both within the contradictions of neoliberal globalization and in relation to the political struggles of people on the ground responding to these increasingly violent conditions. Gilmore's commitment to thinking and acting dialectically means that she always approaches prisons systematically within the conditions of globalizing racial capitalism. Situating the buildup of US prisons in the 1980s within contradictions of neoliberal globalization, she analyzes this historical shift as a transition from "military Keynesianism to post-Keynesian militarism."3 Significantly, she draws attention to how this entails the US postwar racial state's structural adjustment from "the welfare-warfare state to the workfare-warfare state"4 as well as the "organized abandonment" and "organized violence" of the "anti-state state."5 Yet Gilmore has emphasized repeatedly that "the prison fix" is not an isolated phenomenon: the decisions to build prisons—and to invest in industrial punishment, policing, and military rather than in public welfare, health care, roads or schools—have been central to a structural reorganization of the US postwar "landscape of accumulation and dispossession."6 [End Page 371] In other words, Gilmore emphasizes the ways that US prison expansion cannot be separated from the multiple crises of racial capitalism as it expanded globally in the second half of the twentieth century and thus, dialectically, that prisons cannot be countered as a single institution and that abolition cannot be understood or fought without consideration of this global imperial context. Racial capitalism is inherently unstable, and it comes into crisis when the contradiction between accumulation and exploitation reaches a level that is unsustainable, expressed in t
露丝·威尔逊·吉尔摩(Ruth Wilson Gilmore)几十年来一直致力于监狱工业综合体的研究和废除监狱工业的组织,她的深刻贡献因其令人信服的解释力而成为监狱研究和废除监狱运动的基石。她著名的表述是“资本主义需要不平等,而种族主义将不平等奉为神龛”1,以及“种族主义是国家批准的或非法的生产和利用群体差异的过早死亡脆弱性”2,这些表述对学者、学生和活动家来说都是不可或缺的。现在,布伦娜·班达尔和阿尔贝托·托斯卡诺精心收集并介绍了她三十年来的散文,以激励新一代人。试图简单地强调Gilmore对我们理解导致监狱扩张和废除监狱的必要条件的贡献是一项艰巨的任务,但我相信,这个论坛可能会共同强调其中的一系列贡献。在我的评论中,我强调了深刻的辩证思维和实践,这是Gilmore关于20世纪80年代美国监狱建设的宝贵工作的基础,以及她将这种扩张置于新自由主义全球化的矛盾中,以及与当地人民对这些日益暴力的条件作出反应的政治斗争有关的意义。Gilmore致力于辩证地思考和行动,这意味着她总是在种族资本主义全球化的条件下系统地对待监狱。她将20世纪80年代美国监狱的建设置于新自由主义全球化的矛盾之中,并将这一历史转变分析为从“军事凯恩斯主义到后凯恩斯主义军国主义”的过渡。值得注意的是,她关注了美国战后种族国家从“福利战争国家到劳动战争国家”的结构调整,以及“反国家国家”的“有组织的放弃”和“有组织的暴力”。然而,吉尔摩一再强调,“监狱修复”并不是一个孤立的现象:建造监狱的决定——投资于工业惩罚、治安和军事,而不是公共福利、医疗保健、道路或学校——是美国战后“积累和剥夺景观”结构重组的核心。换句话说,Gilmore强调美国监狱扩张的方式不能与种族资本主义的多重危机分开,因为它在20世纪下半叶在全球扩张,因此,辩证地说,监狱不能作为一个单一的机构来对抗,而且如果不考虑这个全球帝国背景,就不能理解或反对废除。种族资本主义本质上是不稳定的,当积累和剥削之间的矛盾达到不可持续的水平时,它就会陷入危机。在美国,一方面表现为生产过剩、利润减少和失业,另一方面表现为贫富差距扩大、种族隔离和有色人种社区日益贫困。这些危机在国际上表现为外国投资、灵活的积累和出口加工,重新确立了第一世界和第三世界之间的殖民地划分,并在社会主义或左倾独立运动获得重要立足点的国家(非洲、中美洲、东北亚和东南亚、中亚和中东),通过公开和隐蔽的美帝国主义战争得到保障。与此同时,这些全球化种族资本主义的危机在国内表现为去工业化、国家退出社会福利、加深经济鸿沟、将种族化的性别贫困定为犯罪以及边境军事化。然而,尽管有些人可能宣称全球化意味着“民族国家的终结”,但吉尔摩一直强调,即使国家的传统角色发生了变化,国家的力量也不会减弱。相反,国家在重组的过程中扩大和加强,正是在监狱建设中,我们看到了国家为了保护资本和施加社会控制而重组刑事司法和政治经济的手段的典范。自20世纪60 - 70年代以来,这些种族资本主义的矛盾愈演愈烈,辩证地产生了对立,爆发了激进的黑、棕、黄、红权力运动、工人罢工、城市叛乱和社会运动,从反战到有色人种妇女女权主义到反种族隔离运动。美国政府对这些政治挑战做出了回应。

Abstract:This essay examines writer's block (and flow) in the American academy. It critically maps the production of blocks in higher education policy, the organization of knowledge, and academics' lived experiences with inquiry. University studies scholars, such as Marc Bousquet and Christopher Newfield, have powerfully critiqued academia's corporatization. This work, however, at times glosses over the diversely felt impacts of institutionalized oppression on writing and learning. In contrast to university studies, faculty development literature has provided granular accounts of writing in a publish-or-perish climate, as in Robert Boice's classic Advice for New Faculty Members or Paul Silvia's How to Write a Lot: A Practical Guide to Productive Academic Writing. The latter work, however, tends to offer individualized advice that risks exacerbating the very problems of the knowledge economy. The present essay underscores that written inquiry is both personal and political, bringing intersectional American studies together with university studies and affect studies to extend work on academe and social justice—such as Roderick Ferguson's The Reorder of Things: The University and Its Pedagogies of Minority Difference and Eli Meyerhoff's Beyond Education: Radical Studying for Another World. "Un/Blocked" argues that writer's block is less a psychological syndrome than a symptom of nationalist investments in academic writing as a way to manage knowledge, labor, and subject-formation. The slash in the title, then, marks writers' ongoing efforts to grapple with knowledge's terms and conditions—hard work that is part of academic inquiry itself.

Abstract:A public opinion poll conducted by the University of Chicago's National Opinion Research Center (NORC) after President John Kennedy's assassination illuminates African Americans' deep veneration of him. While Americans of every race, religion, and region grieved Kennedy's death, the Black community's anguish seemed more intense, lasted longer, and was complicated by their unique experience. Since 1964, scholars have written about Kennedy's civil rights leadership, but existing studies only touch on why African Americans mourned him so acutely and cherished his memory so conscientiously. Substantive gains in the final months of his presidency—combined with earlier, symbolic gestures—added up to an enduring affection for Kennedy among Black citizens.NORC data substantiated the unusual ways that Black mourners processed Kennedy's death. African Americans held segregationists responsible for the assassination, inducing profound gratitude for the martyred Kennedy. Appreciation inspired Black families to hang Kennedy's portrait in their homes alongside images of Jesus Christ and Martin Luther King—a tradition I term "the Trinity." Trinity memorials channeled community grief, conveyed Kennedy's significance to future generations, and remain a touchstone within Black popular culture. This study challenges scholarly assessments of Kennedy's civil rights accomplishments, documenting the genesis and resilience of his memory for African Americans.

Editor's Note Mari Yoshihara This issue opens with Shana L. Redmond's presidential address delivered at the 2022 ASA annual meeting held November 3–6, 2022, in New Orleans, the first in-person conference in three years. The devastating deaths, violence, pain, mourning, policing, and confinement that filled the world during the intervening years only highlighted what Blacks have lived through for centuries. Redmond's powerful, beautiful, and heart-wrenching address, "The Dark Prelude," frees from capture the Black lives that were arrested, suspended, or terminated with a "routine" traffic stop by the police—Sundiata Acoli, Zayd Malik Shakur, and Assata Shakur on May 2, 1973; and Sandra Bland on July 10, 2015—by listening, accompanying, amplifying, and conversing with the sonic everyday of Black living. By turning our ears, eyes, hearts, and brains to the life before terror, Redmond urges us to imagine otherwise and be better. Kimberly Juanita Brown re-creates and joins the Black chorus Redmond called forth by pointing to the inquiry, immersion, politics, and prose of Black study and tracing Blackness that upends temporality. Erica R. Edwards responds to Redmond's invocation of "thick emotion" and "thick camaraderie" of Black study by beholding and listening to the Black anterior that lies in advance of and surrounds Black death and taking the reader through Redmond's act of indictment, not of the state of the field but of the world and our hearts. "Abolitionist Worldmaking" is a forum on Ruth Wilson Gilmore's muchanticipated collection of essays, Abolition Geography, published in 2022. In his introduction, convener Alyosha Goldstein situates Gilmore's decades-long contributions to the prison abolition movement in the history of abolitionism and elucidates the mode of critique that abolition requires. Alisa Bierria, Lisa Lowe, Sarah Haley, Robin D. G. Kelley, and Angela Y. Davis each reflect on the significance of the collection from a variety of perspectives, ranging from everyday movement building to the historical conditions of possibility for worldmaking as well as Gilmore's theoretical and methodological contributions. The first two essays examine settler cosmology, knowledge, and relationship to Indigenous lands and the environment. Nadia Chana's "On Eating, Critical Distance, and Qallunaat Cosmology" critically reads filmic texts that are purportedly about the Inuit and the hunting and eating of seals, showing that the tensions between eating and critical distance indeed illustrate Qallunaat (non-Inuit) cosmology. In "A Forest of Energy: Settler Colonialism, Knowledge Production, and Sugar Maple Kinship in the Menominee Community," [End Page v] the study of the impact of settler colonialism on Menominee land and their understanding of "energy," Gregory Hitch and Marcus Grignon show that the Menominee consistently adapted and resisted colonization by utilizing their ancestral knowledge systems and interspecies ethical frameworks while also ap
本期以莎娜·l·雷德蒙德在2022年11月3日至6日在新奥尔良举行的2022年ASA年会上发表的主席讲话为开端,这是三年来的第一次面对面会议。毁灭性的死亡、暴力、痛苦、哀悼、治安和监禁在其间的岁月里充斥着整个世界,这只突显了黑人几个世纪以来所经历的一切。雷德蒙德的《黑暗前奏》有力、优美、令人揪心,将黑人的生命从被警察“例行”交通拦截中逮捕、暂停或终止——1973年5月2日,sundiata Acoli、Zayd Malik Shakur和Assata Shakur;2015年7月10日,通过倾听、陪伴、放大和与黑人生活的声音交谈。通过把我们的耳朵、眼睛、心灵和大脑转向恐怖之前的生活,雷德蒙德敦促我们想象不一样的生活,变得更好。金伯利·胡安妮塔·布朗通过对黑人研究的探究、沉浸、政治和散文,以及对颠覆暂时性的黑人的追踪,重新创造并加入了雷德蒙德所呼吁的黑人合唱团。埃丽卡·r·爱德华兹回应了雷德蒙德对黑人研究中“浓厚的情感”和“浓厚的同志情谊”的召唤,通过观察和倾听黑人在黑死病之前和周围的前驱,带领读者通过雷德蒙德的控诉行为,不是对这个领域的状态,而是对世界和我们的心。“废奴主义者的世界构建”是Ruth Wilson Gilmore备受期待的散文集《废奴地理学》的论坛,该文集于2022年出版。召集人Alyosha Goldstein在他的引言中,将Gilmore在废奴主义历史上对废除监狱运动长达数十年的贡献置于位置,并阐明了废除所需要的批评模式。Alisa Bierria, Lisa Lowe, Sarah Haley, Robin D. G. Kelley和Angela Y. Davis都从不同的角度思考了这个收藏的意义,从日常运动的构建到世界形成可能性的历史条件,以及Gilmore的理论和方法贡献。前两篇文章考察了定居者的宇宙观、知识以及与土著土地和环境的关系。Nadia Chana的《论饮食、临界距离和Qallunaat宇宙观》批判性地阅读了据称是关于因纽特人和海豹狩猎和进食的电影文本,表明饮食和临界距离之间的紧张关系确实说明了Qallunaat(非因纽特人)的宇宙观。在《能源森林:梅诺米尼社区的定居者殖民主义、知识生产和糖枫亲属关系》(End Page v)中,研究了定居者殖民主义对梅诺米尼土地的影响及其对“能源”的理解,格雷戈里·希契和马库斯·格里尼昂表明,梅诺米尼人通过利用他们祖先的知识系统和物种间的伦理框架,同时也利用占主导地位的科学技术来实现他们的目标,从而始终适应和抵制殖民。接下来的两篇文章将从不同的角度探讨肖像学的种族含义。莎伦·康拉德的《比大多数人更难过:衡量和理解非洲裔美国人对肯尼迪遇刺的反应》一书利用芝加哥大学全国民意研究中心进行的一项民意调查,揭示了非洲裔美国人对遇刺的约翰·肯尼迪总统的深切崇敬和哀悼。通过对民意调查和黑人家庭将他的肖像与耶稣基督和马丁·路德·金的肖像挂在一起的做法的分析,康拉德挑战了对肯尼迪民权成就的学术评估。在《美国穆斯林抗议的图像学和修正主义:论(新)自由主义异议的性别-种族和世俗美学》一书中,Najwa Mayer追溯了一张南亚穆斯林美国妇女戴着美国国旗风格的头巾的海报的制作和大规模传播,并认为种族和世俗自由主义的美学在处理穆斯林抗议和包容的条件时,集中在性别化的美国穆斯林图像学上。最后,内奥米·格雷瑟在《无/阻:美国文学院的写作、种族和性别》一书中以创新的视角审视了美国文学院。关注制度压迫对写作和学习的影响,格雷瑟将写作障碍重新定义为一种心理综合症,而不是民族主义将学术写作作为管理知识、劳动和主题形成的手段的一种症状。在书评里,克里斯汀……
