Talked through the intro of Black Skin, White Masks today with IOE+ Study Group. Kōrero ranged from the multiple meanings of man to the difference in voice & context btwn Foucault and Fanon to differing roles of ethnicity and race in Aotearoa, South Africa, and US.

Another energizing talk today on Chp 1 of Fanon's Black Skin, White Masks. The distinctions btwn race and ethnicity continues to spark lively in the Aotearoa context. And we closed with thinking education as a tool of privilege access premised on exclusion 🎇

In my lecture at Parrhesia Berlin, we’ll explore the work of, among other thinkers, Frantz Fanon and Angela Davis. It’s not too late to sign up! ⬇️ “Colonial and Decolonial Violence: How Anticolonial Thinkers Reinvented the Politics of Force” (Oct 26) parrhesia-berlin.net/courses/autumn…

A great kōrero on Chp 3 of Fanon's Black Skin, White Masks. At this point, it's difficult to locate what Fanon sees after the collapse of the colonizer/colonized dialectic. Possibly he looks to a humanism? And is there violence or need to fit his ideas into contemporary Aotearoa?

The recent talk from Lewis Gordon on Black Skin, White Masks has been posted by Wake Forest especially for your viewing: youtu.be/XBwoFe6pnwE

Discussed Lewis Gordon's video on BSWM. Struck by his use of 'creolization' & 'blues' to interpret the text. Impurity, irony, and the 'teleological suspension of disciplinarity' countering knowledge with thinking. IOE+ is the jam & you should join us 👯💃 youtu.be/XBwoFe6pnwE

Nick Stock IOE+ Study Group is reading this currently (on Chp 5). It's a wonderfully challenging text. Our group found Lewis Gordon's discussion an illuminating resource. Highly recommend youtu.be/XBwoFe6pnwE
