A Critical Inquiry Visiting Professor Lecture
The talk will examine the intimate contours of the social upheaval that characterized black life in the emergent ghetto in the first decades of the twentieth-century. The criminalization of everyday life and the regulation of forms of intimacy, affiliation and kinship document the afterlife of slavery and the emergence of a therapeutic carceral state intent on quashing practices of freedom.
Professor Hartman will be introduced by CI Coeditor Lauren Berlant. A reception will follow.
