This paper is an autoethnographic account of the “racialized activist body” in the White academy and in tandem the bio-politics and bio-ethics of its right to be an affective body or to possess its senses against the trauma of anti-racist struggles in higher education institutions. The paper argues that in the postrace university, the “activist body” birthed through trauma becomes a conduit for the pain of others enacting it as a site for the deposition and transmutation of trauma in the quest for racial and social justice. It employs Bracha Ettinger’s notion of “matrixial borderspace” to examine the interplay of social relations between of the activist body and other traumatized subjects in the provision of care as an activist. Two narratives unfold in the paper fusing the articulations of the main text with the paratext to unleash the tumultuous psyche of the activist and her journey of voicing resistance in her anti-racist struggles. In the process, the activist body emerges as a “diseased site,” overloaded with the trauma of others, yet numbed in its inability to reconnect with its own corporeality and professional identity in its interface with White governmentality. The paper asserts that anti-racist struggles reassemble the activist body, tightly welding it with exhaustion which manifests in the pervasiveness of racial battle fatigue in the ivory tower.

作为创伤部位的“患病”活动家的身体：反种族主义斗争和赛后学院

这篇论文是对白人学院中“种族化的激进主义团体”的自我民族志描述，并结合其作为情感身体或拥有自己的感官的权利的生物政治和生物伦理学，以对抗反种族主义斗争的创伤。高等教育机构。该论文认为，在后种族大学中，通过创伤诞生的“激进主义身体”成为了其他人痛苦的管道，将其作为寻求种族和社会正义的创伤沉积和转化的场所。它采用 Bracha Ettinger 的“母体边界空间”概念来检查在作为一名积极分子提供护理时积极分子身体与其他受创伤主体之间的社会关系的相互作用。论文中展开了两个叙述，将正文的表达与副文本相融合，以释放活动家的动荡心理以及她在反种族主义斗争中表达抵抗的旅程。在这个过程中，激进主义团体成为一个“患病场所”，承受着他人的创伤，但由于无法在与白人政府的界面中重新连接自己的肉体和职业身份而麻木。该论文断言，反种族主义斗争重新组装了激进分子的身体，将其与疲惫紧密结合在一起，这体现在象牙塔中普遍存在的种族战争疲劳。但由于无法在与白人政府的界面中重新连接自己的肉体和职业身份而麻木。该论文断言，反种族主义斗争重新组装了激进分子的身体，将其与疲惫紧密结合在一起，这体现在象牙塔中普遍存在的种族战争疲劳。但由于无法在与白人政府的界面中重新连接自己的肉体和职业身份而麻木。该论文断言，反种族主义斗争重新组装了激进分子的身体，将其与疲惫紧密结合在一起，这体现在象牙塔中普遍存在的种族战争疲劳。
