  pm \n\nDescription: \nCAN BLACK LIVES MATTER IN A BLACK COUNTRY? DISPATCH
 ES FROM JAMAICAThis presentation will probe the project of security (the p
 rotection of whiteness, class hierarchy, and heteropatriarchy) in relati
 on to the desire for safety (“having somebody”). In probing this relation 
 within a context in which police violence and extrajudicial killing are no
 t typically seen as part of the global phenomenon of anti-black racism, i
 t seeks to contribute to a conversation in which raciality is not tethered
  to physicality, but instead is grounded in both historical-ideological a
 nd onto-epistemological phenomena that produce whiteness as the apex of hu
 manity. I will argue that while security is imagined and enacted transnati
 onally and globally (but is nevertheless authorized through and in the nam
 e of the state), safety is grounded locally and requires the intimacy of 
 trusting relationships. And I will suggest that a new elaboration of sover
 eignty – rooted in non-linear temporality, what Glissant has called “circ
 ular nomadism,” and non-utility – can disrupt the disavowals and deferral
 s that undergird imperial Being, and can create the conditions for meanin
 gful forms of accountability. \n\nCategories \n Colloquium Series \n\nAudi
