Black Revolution 1AC

Blackness is only present through a continuous grammar of suffering; that grammar is one of accumulation and fungibility through a status of non-humanity that positions slaves as provision for Civil Society. The meta-physical and gratuitous violence creates the dichotomy between structural life and death – making the African that entered the ship a Black when it went. Fungibility is the structural essence for Civil Society and the condition of possibility for the ‘living.’

This fungibility is replicated throughout status quo energy policy where Black suffering has created the condition of possibility for an advancement of consumption with no paradigm to evaluate it all.

The violence that produces the subject (in this case, the doctor) robs Anna Brown of vocality, not so much literally as ontologically. Insofar as an object (a commodity, a slave) can speak, it cannot be said that it can communicate. At the etymological root of “communicate” is the logic of the commons or community: informing to participate in the world, sharing one’s utterance(s) to join the community. Communication, not even to imply anything as serious as the ethics of dialogue, requires an equal ontological status amongst the communicators. That several titles of the video online have called her the “homeless woman” evidences one singular truth (the desire to insult her notwithstanding): Anna Brown, as the descendent of slaves, has no home while the doctors are in their own dominion.
