People-of-Color-Blindness: A Lecture by Jared Sexton
Jared Sexton, Associate Professor and Director of the Program in African American Studies at UC Irvine, will discuss the concept of "people of color," highlighting a form of blindness to the singularity of racial slavery internal to its articulation. The first section of the talk charts briefly a theoretical itinerary that reads the radical black feminism of Saidiya Hartman and Hortense Spillers and the political ontology of Frank B. Wilderson against the prevarication regarding slavery and its afterlife in prominent strains of critical theory. The second section attempts to situate Wilderson's formulation of "afro-pessimism" with respect to the "black optimism" articulated by Fred Moten and other theorists of black performance.

Hearing his thought process unfold is FIYAH!!!
One of my favourite professors; he is awesome. He is highly educated as compare to his age. I love the way he lectures. He is such a respectable and kind man which is beyond my ideas. All the Best
what in the world made slavery possible?- great question. I feel that Cedric Robinson can help to answer that in Terms of Order. I think Sexton is right, we really don’t know what Slavery is. It is a property relation before any work happens. Deep.

Academics write and speak for academics. What is this information worth if it is comprehended only by a minority?

@@leomoore3597 These are conceptual ideas. They are reformulations. This is akin to testing robots in the lab. Think of critical race theory, it emerged like 50 years but only entered the public lexicon like 2 years ago.

wow you look totally different i guess your punk band didnt really work out, you and gange were really good i guess the timing just wasnt right. Anyway remember last day of school you said you were making a bomb, did you end up finishing it? it appears you've evolved into quite a successful weggan head, keep running a muck at lectures as long as the crowds are going wild, peace secko
Great intellect but his presentation is drier than a moon boot.
