Winner, The Frantz Fanon Award for an Outstanding Book in Caribbean Thought We are in the fray of another signature moment in the long history of the United States as a project of anti Black and racialâcolonial violence. Long before November 2016, white nationalism, white terrorism, and white fascist statecraft proliferated. Thinking across a variety of archival, testimonial, visual, and activist textsâfrom Freedmenâs Bureau documents and the âJoin LAPDâ hiring campaign to Barry Goldwaterâs hidden tattoo and the Pelican Bay prison strikeâDylan RodrÃguez counter-narrates the long âpostâcivil rightsâ half-century as a period of White Reconstruction, in which the struggle to reassemble the ascendancy of White Being permeates the political and institutional logics of diversity, inclusion, formal equality, and âmulticulturalist white supremacy.â Throughout White Reconstruction, RodrÃguez considers how the creative, imaginative, speculative collective labor of abolitionist praxis can displace and potentially destroy the ascendancy of White Being and Civilization in order to create possibilities for insurgent thriving.
