This article reads the photo album, The ‘Life and Times’ of an American Called Pauli Murray as an archive of anti-lynching pasts and futures. While scholarly discourses have leveraged Murray’s archive for evidence of her ‘true’ gender and sexual orientation, this article uses the reading practice of ‘accompaniment’ to reframe investigations of Murray’s identity into thinking with and learning from the strategies she archived in the album for living in atmospheres of antiblackness. Working with Christina Sharpe’s (2016) concept of ‘weathering’, I read several photographs in Murray’s album as burgeoning ecologies of repair in relation to visual technologies of racial capture, particularly that of lynching photography. Reading passages in which Murray talks about lynching and race as atmospheric from Proud Shoes (1999 [1956]) and Song in a Weary Throat (1987) alongside The ‘Life and Times’, I read Murray’s portraits as rupturing white property relations through turning lynching photography’s scripts inside out.

黑树游戏：从一个叫保利·默里的美国人的“生活和时代”中学习反私刑生态

这篇文章阅读了一个名为 Pauli Murray 的美国人的相册“生活和时代”，作为反私刑过去和未来的档案。虽然学术话语利用 Murray 的档案作为她“真实”性别和性取向的证据，但本文使用“伴奏”的阅读实践来重新构建对 Murray 身份的调查，以思考她在专辑中存档的生存策略并从中学习在反黑气氛中。使用 Christina Sharpe (2016) 的“风化”概念，我阅读了 Murray 相册中的几张照片，这些照片是与种族捕捉视觉技术相关的新兴生态修复，尤其是私刑摄影。
