Transcripts For CSPAN2 Frank Wilderson Afropessimism 20240712

A lot of people stick their careers on the exactopposite, that we are all part of the universal human family and if youve written three books like that , so what sets these causes is of course the anxiety of antagonism and this is the last point ill before i close on the question because the anxiety of antagonism is something that its interesting to me as i travel the world. I have had to deal with the anxiety of antagonism in teaching young people in the United States in germany or in south africa and that is the anxiety of being presented with a problem for which theres no imaginable solution even though if there is a solution it cannot be theorized at this moment so the anxiety of antagonism produces responses which are redundant and unread and emotional rather than analytic.
