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……

Abstract:Drawing on declassified Central Intelligence Agency files and the Congress for Cultural Freedom (CCF) archives held at the University of Chicago, this essay investigates how the CIA and its cover organizations sought to manipulate the legacy of Leo Tolstoy as part of the larger Cultural Cold War. In 1960, the CCF marked the fiftieth anniversary of Tolstoy's death by organizing a conference that attracted a wide range of writers and academics from around the world. Secretly sponsored by the CIA, the Tolstoy gathering, which took place in Venice in the summer of 1960, was intended to counter similar events planned by the Soviets, which the CIA feared would portray the Russian novelist as a prophet of Bolshevism. In response, the West hoped to claim Tolstoy as a thinker whose individualist philosophy was unassimilable to either Marxism or capitalism. Essentially, they sought to secularize his Christian anarchism as a form of radical liberty. However, this essay argues, the intelligence community's appropriation of the humanities ultimately conflicts with the pacifist writer's antipathy toward state sponsorship of the arts and the weaponization of culture in the service of nationalistic agendas.

Abstract:This essay presents the case for the analytic of "sonic transness" as a way to understand the gendered deployment of voice in the construction of racialized transgender subjectivities. Through a close reading of Christine Jorgensen's vocal performance in the 1962 Philippine film Kaming Mga Talyada (We Who Are Sexy), which includes autobiographical monologue, celebrity impersonations, and songs performed in English and Tagalog, this essay examines the place of Jorgensen's voice and sonic practices in her self-constitution as a global, aspirational, and cosmopolitan white trans subject. At the same time, by listening to the ways in which her voice fades in and out of broader trans histories, this essay's focus on Jorgensen's performance in the Philippines makes audible the global production and extraction of value from trans and gender-nonconforming voices.
