TL;DR: Excerpts and Addenda on the Surveillance of Blackness
This discussion situates blackness as an absented presence in the field of surveillance studies, and questions how a realization of the conditions of blackness—the historical, the present, and the historical present— can help social theorists understand our contemporary conditions of surveillance.
