Description
Résumé:This article considers embodied Black subjectivity as a needed point of departure for theologically engaging white supremacy's positioning of Black people at the intersection of race and animals. Against commonplace notions which interpret this positioning as dehumanization, this article follows Zakiyyah Iman Jackson to view this site more comprehensively as one of plasticization: a place where white supremacy attempts not simply to deny Black people humanity, but ontological form, being, and integrity. Tracking the motif (and embodied reality) of "teeth" across the archive of Black life, this article demonstrates the intervention embodied Black subjectivity makes against calls to decenter the human.
