Abstract

Abstract In this essay, I explore how paradigms like raciolinguistics and culturally sustaining pedagogies can offer substantive breaks from mainstream thought and provide us with new, just, and equitable ways of living together in the world. I begin with a deep engagement with Boots Riley and his critically acclaimed, anticapitalist, absurdist comedy Sorry to Bother You, in hopes of demonstrating how artists, activists, creatives, and scholars might: 1) cotheorize the complex relationships between language and racial capitalism and 2) think through the political, economic, and pedagogical implications of this new theorizing for Communities of Color. In our current sociopolitical situation, we need to continue making pedagogical moves toward freedom that center and sustain Communities of Color in the face of the myriad ways that white settler capitalist terror manifests. As we continue to theorize the relationships between language and racial capitalism, frameworks like raciolinguistics and culturally sustaining pedagogies provide fundamentally critical, antiracist, anticolonial approaches that reject the capitalist white settler gaze and its kindred cisheteropatriarchal, English-monolingual, ableist, classist, xenophobic, and other hegemonic gazes. What they offer us, instead, is a break from the assimilationist politics of the past and a move toward abolitionist frameworks of the future.
发明“白人的声音”:种族资本主义、种族语言学和文化维持教育学
摘要在这篇文章中,我探讨了种族主义和文化维持教育学等范式如何从主流思想中获得实质性的突破,并为我们提供新的、公正的、公平的共同生活方式。我首先深入接触了Boots Riley和他广受好评的反资本主义荒诞喜剧《对不起打扰你》,希望展示艺术家、活动家、创意人士和学者如何:1)共同探讨语言和种族资本主义之间的复杂关系,以及这一新理论对有色人种社区的教学意义。在我们当前的社会政治形势下,面对白人定居者资本主义恐怖的种种表现,我们需要继续朝着以自由为中心并维持有色人种社区的方向进行教育。随着我们继续对语言和种族资本主义之间的关系进行理论化,种族语言学和文化维持教育学等框架提供了从根本上批判、反种族主义、反殖民的方法,拒绝资本主义白人定居者的凝视及其同类的顺异父权制、英语单语、能人主义、古典主义、仇外主义和其他霸权凝视。相反,他们为我们提供的是打破过去的同化政治,走向未来的废奴主义框架。
