Gemiste kans in Rusland

Had ik, toen ik na vijf jaar correspondentschap in 1987 Moskou verliet, kunnen vermoeden dat Rusland 36 jaar later een militaristische, agressieve dictatuur zou zijn, die andere landen aanvalt en bedreigt en een bedrukkende culturele revolutie zegt te vertegenwoordigen die alle burgerrechten opoffert aan de behoeften van de staat? Natuurlijk niet. Maar ik wist wel heel zeker, op mijn laatste…

The legal system is the prime mechanism through which both racial violence and its ‘redress’ are carried out (let’s not pretend, to echo the analytical attitude of Hortense Spillers and Saidiya Hartman, that the quotation marks do not matter). This isn’t by accident: there is no inconsistency between the law and its application. Saidiya Hartman tells us, that “the proposed remedies and correctives to [structural racism]—inclusion, protection, and greater access to opportunity—do not ultimately challenge the economy of racial production or its truth claims or interrogate the exclusion constitutive of the norm but instead seek to gain equality, liberation, and redress within its confines.” The solutions proffered—inclusion, protection, and greater access to opportunity—are geared toward the preservation of a sustainable neoliberal multiracial society. The nature of anti-racism is seen as a narrative of progress, which is conceived as structurally similar to the equilibrium—disequilibrium—equilibrium trajectory of narrative. To elaborate, what is presupposed is that the state of equilibrium—a state of non-racism—is disrupted by a racist instance, after which anti-discrimination bureaus intervene in order to facilitate a return to a state of equilibrium. However, this narrative arc makes sense only from the point of view of the White subject. For the Black life form the supposed state of equilibrium is an illusory trick; racism is always already there. From the positionality of the Black there is no “unniggarized vantage point from which to see the world or be seen by the world.”
