Second, there is Rouzbeh Shadpey’s “Negative Evidence.” Shadpey demonstrates the challenge that fatigue poses to theory, evincing how fatigue is the very cut, the negativity that separates body and psyche. csalateral.org/section/aporia…

Excited to share two excellent new Aporias articles in @LateralJournal! First there’s Kevin Rigby Jr.’s “What Does Black Protest Appear to Be?,” which considers the intelligibility of Black protest. Rigby puts into tension rupture and representation. csalateral.org/section/aporia…

How do trans people in the Caribbean imagine the end of the world? And what might we learn when this imagination of apocalypse takes place through the violence of climate catastrophe? 🌊 🌀 My essay on this question has been published today in GLQ. Feel free to DM me for a copy!

“In this essay, I argue that the rhetoric behind “not in my name” actually mobilizes the same gesture as the popular Zionist move to innocence.” dead ass one of the best things i read this year. let’s keep saying the quiet parts out loud. highlight ALL the haints.
unexceptional politics@emolahh

in this essay, I identify a line of continuity instead of an opposition between Jewish anti-Zionism and Jewish Zionism through the Jewish appeal to innocence csalateral.org/section/aporia…
