"Freedom can be granted, but it remains a “legal fiction”. […] Rights cannot be bestowed upon those constructed as Slaves, non-Humans, or property, especially when such a status is the contingent basis of the worldview through which rights are given their coherence."
by Scott Campbell @susurros

“Peace, within an antiblack world, is a fallacy (much like freedom). The metaphysical infrastructure that supports the fiction of the white human is sustained by antiblack violence.”
by Calvin Warren, in Ontological Terror

"Palestinians despise the courts. We hate the sight of a judge, knowing all too well that they are no different from the interrogator. We loathe the law and all it stands for in our context—a tool for oppression cloaked in legality. Even the lawyers, perhaps universally disliked, evoke our mistrust. But for us, the courts represent more than frustration; they are the place where our oppressive conditions are translated into legal language, where the weight of colonial domination is formalized with a veneer of legitimacy."

For Kanak independence: The fight against French rule in New Caledonia by Susanna Ounei

"Since 1984, the struggle of the Kanak people against French colonial rule in New Caledonia has consistently attracted world headlines. It has become a symbol of the new awakening of the indigenous peoples of the Pacific against more than 100 years of imperialist domination.

In the English-speaking Pacific and beyond, however, very little is known of the history of the Kanak anti-colonial struggle or the Kanak Socialist National Liberation Front (FLNKS), which is leading the independence fight today.

In this pamphlet, Susanna Ounei, the official representative in New Zealand of the FLNKS who has been active in the national liberation struggle since 1969, backgrounds the situation in New Caledonia today and outlines the goals of the FLNKS. Also included is the founding charter of the FLNKS."

Apadrinhada pela UNESCO, esta obra, de autoria de Aristides Pereira, ex-presidente de Cabo Verde, resulta do trabalho, executado pelo autor e por uma equipa de investigadores e historiadores, no âmbito do Projecto SPHAC (Salvaguarda do Património Histórico da África Contemporânea).

O seu objectivo, estudar a luta que o PAIGC travou pela libertação da Guiné e de Cabo Verde, constitui uma importante contribuição para a história dos dois países — como, aliás, o Prof. Joseph Ki-Zerbo, pai da historiografia africana, salienta no prefácio —, pois põe à disposição do grande público o resultado de uma interpretação interactiva das memórias de antigos combatentes cruzada com informações extraídas dos arquivos portugueses e do PAIGC.

Escravos, roceiros e rebeldes by Stuart B. Schwartz; Jussara Simões

Estudo de um dos temas mais cruciais da historia do país, este livro aborda, de maneira original, como os escravos estruturavam sua própria vida e o papel decisivo que tiveram na construção e funcionamento do sistema escravocrata.

O author mapeia especialmente as limitações e oportunidades de uma população incapaz ce construir seu próprio destino, e que consegue apenas (e esporadicamente) limitar a ação de seus senhores, vivendo numa equação desequilibrada que a prejudicia enormemente. E esse mapeamento é perpassado pelas relações nada simples que havia entre escravos, senhores e outras camadas sociais na sociedade escraocrata brasileira.

Ao mesmo tempo, escudado no pressuposto ético de que a História deve servir para se entender e explicar o presente, o autor situa na atualidade o singular fenômeno estudado, em que a função da cidadania vem sendo cada vez mais debatida e justificada.

African Women in Revolution by Wunyabari O. Maloba

#Africa, #Africanhistory, #antiimperialism, #armedstruggle, #antiblackness, #anticolonialism, #nationalliberation, #Algeria, #Kenya, #GuineaBissau, #revolution, #Mozambique, #Angola, #Zimbabwe, #SouthAfrica, #history, #feminism, #decolonisation, #womensliberation, #guerrillawarfare, #genderhistory

"This book is an ambitious, extensive and detailed analysis of the roles played by African women in seven revolutionary movements in post World War II Africa. The revolutionary movements covered in this book occurred in: Algeria, Kenya, Guinea-Bissau, Mozambique, Angola, Zimbabwe, and South Africa. The book describes and analyzes the nature and impact of women's participation in these revolutionary movements. How did these revolutionary movements define women's liberation? What is the linkage between feminist theories of liberation and national liberation? Did the national liberation movements betray women? And what has been the fate of the original commitments (and impulses) toward women's liberation and gender equality?"
