Abstract:In this essay, I account for the continuum of inclusion, regulation, and historical revision formative to "Muslim American" iconography in the late war on terror era. In 2017, a poster of a South Asian Muslim American woman wearing a hijab in the style of the United States flag was touted by transnational media as "the face of the Trump resistance" and carried across pro-immigration and feminist protests that imagined a more inclusive state. It was also rebuked by Muslims for desanctifying the hijab through the US flag, perceived as symbol of the state's settler-imperial violence. Tracing the poster's production—from its source artwork to its distinct revisions—and mass circulations, I consider the intersections of race, gender, and secularism in US politics, markets, and aesthetics. I situate the poster within uneven neoliberal art markets that commodify dissent as well as flexible genealogies of secular arts and civil religion, which racially discipline Islam into an aesthetic of the US state and its resistances. I then focus on the poster's mobilization in the Women's March on Washington, where Muslim women, Islam, and transnational solidarities with Palestine became subjects of feminist inclusion and contention. I argue the shifting aesthetics of gendered-racial and secular (neo)liberalism converge on Muslim American iconographies of protest and inclusion while managing the terms of Muslim protest and inclusion.
摘要:在本文中,我解释了在反恐战争后期形成“美国穆斯林”形象的包容、规范和历史修正的连续统一体。2017年,一名南亚穆斯林美国妇女戴着美国国旗风格的头巾的海报被跨国媒体吹捧为“特朗普抵抗的面孔”,并在支持移民和女权主义的抗议活动中传播,这些抗议活动想象着一个更包容的国家。穆斯林还指责他们用美国国旗贬低头巾的神圣性,因为美国国旗被认为是该州定居者-帝国暴力的象征。追踪海报的制作过程——从它的原始艺术作品到它的明显修改——以及大规模的流通,我考虑了种族、性别和世俗主义在美国政治、市场和美学中的交集。我把海报放在不平衡的新自由主义艺术市场中,这个市场将异议商品化,也将世俗艺术和公民宗教的灵活谱系商品化,这在种族上约束了伊斯兰教,使其成为美国及其抵抗的审美。然后,我将重点放在海报在华盛顿妇女游行中的动员上,在那里,穆斯林妇女、伊斯兰教和与巴勒斯坦的跨国团结成为女权主义包容和争论的主题。我认为,性别-种族和世俗(新)自由主义美学的转变,在处理穆斯林抗议和包容的条件时,汇聚在美国穆斯林抗议和包容的图像上。

On Eating, Critical Distance, and Qallunaat Cosmology 关于饮食、临界距离和Qallunaat宇宙论

Abstract:This essay produces a reading of Qallunaat—glossed as white people, or sometimes non-Inuit—as they come into view via two things: their relationships with Inuit and with animals, and their reactions to Inuit relationships with animals. Alongside three filmic texts that appear—especially to those who follow Qallunaat conventions—to be about Inuit and Inuit practices of hunting and eating seals, this essay reads against the (perceived) grain to shine the spotlight on Qallunaat: What can the tensions between eating and critical distance tell us about Qallunaat cosmology? The three filmic texts in question are the Qallunaaq filmmaker Robert Flaherty's 1922 Nanook of the North, the first full-length documentary film; the Inuk performer Tanya Tagaq's 2012 Nanook of the North, in which Tagaq rewrites Flaherty's version by adding a live soundtrack; and Tungijuq, a 2009 film by Félix Lajeunesse and Paul Raphaël in which Tagaq stars and whose screenplay she co-wrote. This essay also performs its reading: Tagaq becomes the theorist who leads us in equal parts through these filmic texts and through the thick, fleshy contexts in which they are embedded. I, neither Inuk nor Qallunaaq, take on a hyperbolized critical distance as a quasi-anthropologist. Qallunaat proclivities are eagerly displayed.
摘要:本文对卡卢纳进行了解读——以白人或非因纽特人的身份进行解读——他们通过两件事进入人们的视野:他们与因纽特人和动物的关系,以及他们对因纽特人与动物关系的反应。除了三部电影文本——尤其是对那些遵循卡卢纳习俗的人来说——似乎是关于因纽特人和因纽特人捕猎和吃海豹的习俗,这篇文章反其有道地把焦点集中在卡卢纳身上:吃和关键距离之间的紧张关系能告诉我们关于卡卢纳宇宙观的什么?我们讨论的三部电影文本是:卡卢纳克电影制作人罗伯特·弗莱厄蒂的《1922年北方的纳努克》,这是第一部完整的纪录片;因努克表演者塔尼亚·塔格(Tanya Tagaq) 2012年的《北方的纳努克》(Nanook of the North),塔格在其中改写了弗莱厄蒂的版本,加入了现场配乐;还有2009年由f里斯·拉杰内斯和保罗·Raphaël主演的电影《通吉居》,塔格格参与编剧。这篇文章也完成了它的阅读:塔格成为了一位理论家,他带领我们在这些电影文本和它们所嵌入的厚重的、肉感的语境中平等地穿行。我既不是因努克人,也不是Qallunaaq人,作为一名准人类学家,我承担了一种夸张的临界距离。Qallunaat的倾向被热切地展示出来。

A Forest of Energy: Settler Colonialism, Knowledge Production, and Sugar Maple Kinship in the Menominee Community 能源森林:移民殖民主义、知识生产和梅诺米尼社区的糖枫亲属关系

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.
摘要:梅诺米尼人长期以来一直利用并共同创造生态系统中的能量流,特别是枫树。然而,美国占领了几乎所有的梅诺米尼土地,将生态系统转变为工业系统,包括枫糖。此外,热力学的能量观念使超越人类的力量变成了“做功的能力”。然而,许多梅诺米尼人在互惠的道德体系和相互联系的知识传统的指导下,从一种接地气的、关系的角度来理解超越人类世界的“能量”。能源研究批判性地考察了社会和文化是如何与能源系统,特别是化石燃料纠缠在一起的。然而,从热力学之外的角度对移民殖民主义对生态能源的影响进行更多的研究将大大加强这一领域。因此,我们提出三个主要论点。首先,美国移民殖民主义是一种环境不公正的行为,它暴力地侵占了美诺米尼人祖传土地上蕴含的大量能源或财富。其次,梅诺米尼人通过利用其祖先的知识体系和物种间的伦理框架来适应和抵抗殖民,同时利用占主导地位的科学和技术来推进他们的目标。最后,糖枫树提供了一个将土著能量理论纳入定居者殖民主义研究的物质例子。

The Dialectics of Abolition 废除的辩证法

Lisa Lowe
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.
摘要:本文考察了作家在美国学术界的障碍。它批判性地描绘了高等教育政策、知识组织和学者生活经历中的块的产生。大学研究学者,如Marc Bousquet和Christopher Newfield,强烈批评了学术界的公司化。然而,这部作品有时掩盖了制度化压迫对写作和学习的不同影响。与大学研究相反,教师发展文献对出版或消亡环境下的写作提供了细致的描述,如罗伯特·博伊斯的经典著作《给新教师的建议》或保罗·西尔维亚的《如何写很多:高效学术写作实用指南》。然而,后一项工作倾向于提供个性化的建议,这可能会加剧知识经济的问题。本文强调书面调查既是个人的,也是政治的,将跨部门的美国研究与大学研究和影响研究结合起来,以扩展学术和社会正义方面的工作,如罗德里克·弗格森的《事物的重组:大学及其少数族裔差异的教育学》和伊莱·梅耶霍夫的《超越教育:为另一个世界进行激进研究》。“Un/Blocked”认为,作家的障碍与其说是一种心理综合症,不如说是民族主义者对学术写作的投资的症状,学术写作是管理知识、劳动和主题形成的一种方式。因此,标题中的斜杠标志着作家们正在努力解决知识的条款和条件——这是学术研究本身的一部分。
