I contend that 2021, much like 2020, contained several uncanny echoes of the abolition politics of the eighteenth century. The subject position \"we\" remains slippery and problematic—perhaps even more than in 2020—despite or perhaps because of apparent victories such as Derek Chauvin's conviction for the murder of George Floyd. I discuss the key ways this court case echoes the legal and political contexts of the late eighteenth-century abolition movement before pivoting to a reflection on eighteenth-century Black resistance, grassroots antiracist efforts, and some key takeaways for today's academics.","PeriodicalId":54033,"journal":{"name":"EIGHTEENTH CENTURY-THEORY AND INTERPRETATION","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135304563","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Set in the protocommunist, protofeminist and anti-individualist island of Lithconia, Equality offers readers a world without financial property, class hierarchy, or gender inequality. This essay argues that Lithconia is a radical model for a possible future America that helps us understand today's pandemic and postpandemic crises as part of a history of inequality but also asks us to imagine moving beyond them. The second part of this essay examines Equality 's lack of radical racial politics, which prompts readers to ask not just where and when a better world exists but who it is for.","PeriodicalId":54033,"journal":{"name":"EIGHTEENTH CENTURY-THEORY AND INTERPRETATION","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135304569","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
