Through the lens of the decolonial school of thought developed by Latin American thinkers and scholars, this text focuses on the identification and analysis of the subalterns’ praxis of living, thinking, knowing, and doing. The contributors delve into the subalterns’ agency at work and how their [inter]subjective\/reflective actions, gestures, and thoughts are deep-seated in subverting and resisting the material and symbolic coloniality of power's exploitation, categorization, and oppression. Drawing from sociological, anthropological, literary, and historical approaches, a new set of ideas and rationalities uncovers and challenges the complicities of modernity\/coloniality (power-pattern-matrix) through new narratives and discursive epistemic-frames of empowerment and agency.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Crossing Racial Borders: The Epistemic Empowerment of the Subaltern offers an indispensable understanding and is full of accurate assessments of the miseries of contemporary ‘peripheral’ capitalism from the angle of the decolonial aspect. In the face of modern barbarism, the book's analysis encourages how the decolonization of power and knowledge can be an instrument of resistance in the battle of struggles and ideas.\"\u003c\/p\u003e -- Deni Alfaro Rubbo, State University of Mato Grosso do Sul\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"This book, Crossing Racial Borders, is a remarkable body of scholarship. It encourages us to think more deeply about decoloniality from the lived experiences of racialised populations in the Global South. The essays and interviews bring up the voices of artists, scholars, and authors who turn decoloniality into a productive framework to address race, modernity, and empowerment. This book is a compelling contribution to critical thinking in our troubled times.\"\u003c\/p\u003e -- Sarah Fila-Bakabadio, CY Cergy Paris Université\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLenita Perrier and Luis Martínez Andrade\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart 1\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNecropolitics and Race \/\/ Hunger, Violence, and Invisibility\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 1: Necropolitics and Coloniality of Power in Latin America\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLuis Martínez Andrade\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 2: Decoloniality and Reading Carolina Maria de Jesus in Public School\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVeruschka de Sales Azevedo\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 3: Rhythms of the Margins: Subversive Decolonial Narratives and Practices\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCatarina de Figueiredo Ramos\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 4: Afro-Brazilian Perspectives and Decolonial Thought\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNádia Maria Cardoso da Silva\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart 2\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCrossing Racial Borders \/\/ Whiteness, Fraud, and Silencing\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 5: Black-White-Coloniality: Race in a Transmodern Decolonial Setting\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLenita Perrier\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 6: Coloniality through Whiteness: Brazilian Academia and the Exclusion of Black Students’ Rights\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSales Augusto dos Santos\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 7: The Decolonial Poetics in Torto Arado\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJanaína de Figueiredo\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 8: Virgínia Leone Bicudo and Her Perspective of the “Outsider Within.” What She Saw that Donald Pierson Did Not\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNádia Maria Cardoso da Silva\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart 3\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInterviews\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInterview with Anthropologist and Professor Ari Lima \/ “Ari’s Case Twenty Years After”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLenita Perrier\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInterview with Professor of Arabic Studies and Comparative Literature Amal Eqeiq \/ “The (Hi)story Is Not Over”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLuis Martínez Andrade\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAbout the Contributors\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lexington Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51042009055575,"sku":"9781666912647","price":72.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781666912647.jpg?v=1750952604","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/crossing-racial-borders-the-epistemic-empowerment-of-the-subaltern-9781666912647","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
