ABSTRACT

In 2018, mobile phone videos went viral of white people calling police to report Black people for engaging in innocuous conduct. Dubbed “white caller crime” by some commentators, mainstream and social media afforded serious and satiric attention to racist harassment via police calls. In this article, I analyze these police calls as a form of racist expression that operates as a call to harm. I begin by recounting three calls that went viral in consecutive months in 2018. I then theorize how the calls play out white supremacist and colonial logics of race and place, and I explore how viral publicity provides a viable strategy of resistance to racist expression. I close by contending that publicity, and the responses it has inspired, holds more promise for contesting racist police calls than a predictable turn to law and punishment under a hate speech framework.

Free Speech v。Free Blacks:种族主义警务和危害性呼吁

摘要

在2018年,手机视频在白人之间蔓延开来,并向警察报警,以报告黑人从事无害行为的行为。某些评论家将其称为“白人来电犯罪”,主流媒体和社交媒体对通过警察电话进行的种族主义骚扰给予了认真而讽刺的关注。在本文中,我将这些警察呼吁作为种族主义表达的一种形式进行分析,以此作为伤害呼吁。。首先,我回顾了三个在2018年连续几个月流行的呼吁。然后,我对这些呼吁如何体现种族和地方的白人至上主义和殖民主义逻辑进行了理论分析,并探讨了病毒宣传如何为抵抗种族主义表达提供可行的策略。最后,我认为宣传及其所激发的反应,比起在仇恨言论框架下可预见的法律和惩罚转向,对种族主义警察的要求更具挑战性。
