Neil’s Recent Updates
“Fanon and James dared theorists of freedom to cast aside old enslaving norms, work out new concepts, and set afoot a new imaginative humanism in regions Prospero never knew. Freedom as marronage is one answer to this challenge.”
― Freedom as Marronage
― Freedom as Marronage
“Grand marronage refers to the mass flight of individuals from slavery to form an autonomous community of freedom emphasizing physical escape, geographic isolation, rejection of property relations associated with a slavery regime, and avoidance of sustained states of war through compacts, treaties, and negotiations for political recognition. These “maroon societies,” as Richard Price notably calls them, work against a fleeting temporality. They are forged through flight intended to sustain an ongoing community with defined borders.”

“We must come to terms with the meaning of freedom externally by recognizing the actuality of human plurality, “the fact that men, not Man, live on the earth and inhabit the world.”
