Inhalt
"This book places Spike Lee's film, BlacKkKlansman, in dialogue with political questions that have been considered by a swathe of thinkers, including Plato, Marx, Freud, Fanon, Butler, and Davis to investigate how this film works as a text of political thought. Some questions include: what is the meaning of freedom under social constraint? How does racism and anti-Blackness structure the parameters of conversation and belonging? Is power dispersed, and, if it is, how must resistance be decentralized? What is political about speech, and how exactly does language have a performative political function? How to build solidarity and imagine political commitment?"--
