The book explores black urban resistance against racist imagery, policing, and housing insecurity in the Parisian region. Based on ethnographic research and qualitative interviews, this study explores the formation of abolitionist spatial resistance, mutli-racial solidarity and the possibilities of political blackness. -- .
This is a cutting-edge exploration of black urban politics in Parisian racialized working class and working poor districts, the formation of abolition geography, and the possibilities of new forms of political blackness.
In Black socialities, Vanessa E. Thompson argues that black urban politics in the French banlieues are multi-racial and spatially grounded towards abolition. Based on a close engagement with urban black activist practices against racial imagery in the city, policing and state racism, and housing insecurity, she shows how radical anti-racism goes beyond struggles for recognition and unfolds alongside new formations of political blackness that is based on urban conviviality.
This form of black politics has much to teach us in this current conjuncture of liberal anti-racism and state recognition politics. -- .
