- Title
Beads of Resistance: Reading Black Diasporic Indigeneity in Romantic Abolitionism.
- Authors
SINANAN, KERRY
- Abstract
An essay is presented on the Romantic period's universalizing of multiple African identities and Indigeneities, and the collapsing of these into a racialized blackness. It mentions the process of the Enlightenment's seizure and forging of blackness. It discusses Romantic culture's erasure of specific African Indigeneity as part of a necessary critical response to the period's antiblackness.
