Abstract

Abstract:The article interrogates notions of resistance and will against the Black Radical Tradition vis-à-vis a close reading of Friedrich Nietzsche’s Will to Power and through Hortense Spiller’s seminal essay, “Mama’s Baby, Papa’s Maybe.” In reading Spillers alongside Nietzsche, the essay argues that black nihilism presents a more severe problem than Nietzsche could anticipate: that the black will is denied active desire and a cosmological body is left to express its “power”—only to highlight (black) resistance as a question.

摘要:本文通过-à-vis对弗里德里希·尼采的《权力意志》的细读，并通过霍顿斯·斯皮勒的开创性论文《妈妈的孩子，爸爸的也许》，对黑人激进传统的抵抗和意志概念进行了质疑。在与尼采一起阅读斯皮勒时，这篇文章认为黑人虚无主义提出了一个比尼采所能预料到的更严重的问题:黑人意志被否定了积极的欲望，宇宙体被留下来表达它的“力量”——只是为了突出(黑人)抵抗作为一个问题。
