This paper emerged from an encounter with the Black Lives Matter placard I understand that I will never understand but I stand with you in Leipzig, Germany, and it centers white understanding as a constitutive practice of whiteness. This is mainly a theoretical contribution (learning towards the philosophical), although it includes some interview data and observations from protest participation. I contribute to raciolinguistics by reading the concept of the white listening subject through Barad’s new materialist notion of apparatuses, asking what exactly constitutes white understanding. This allows me to bring out the potentials and pitfalls (i.e. the counter/productivity) of white understanding as a reflective practice, which I put into conversation with my embodied practice of under-standing (i.e. standing under) the placard at a BLM protest in Berlin. I show how the white body is measured by a Black norm in the protest space, producing a productive discomfort filled with opportunities for becoming response-able towards the Black Other, but also towards whiteness. Considering the ethico-esthetic framing of this collection, I pursue an aesthethics of wor(l)ding that inter-rupts, dis/entangles, and walks around with and in words. It gestures towards what we usually leave out when pursuing one analytical avenue over another.

通过抗议标语牌变得有能力做出反应：白人在与黑人德国其他人的遭遇中的理解（-）

这篇论文是在遇到“黑人生命也是命”标语牌时诞生的我明白我永远不会明白，但我和你站在一起在德国莱比锡，它将白人理解作为白人的一种构成性实践。这主要是理论贡献（学习哲学），尽管它包括一些采访数据和抗议参与的观察。我通过巴拉德的新唯物主义装置概念来解读白人倾听主体的概念，并询问白人理解的确切构成是什么，从而为种族语言学做出了贡献。这使我能够揭示白人理解作为一种反思性实践的潜力和陷阱（即反/生产力），我将其与我在 BLM 抗议中理解（即站在）标语牌的具体实践进行对话。柏林。我展示了在抗议空间中如何用黑人规范来衡量白人的身体，从而产生一种富有成效的不适感，充满了对黑人他者做出反应的机会，但也对白人产生了反应。考虑到这个系列的伦理美学框架，我追求文字美学它打断、解开/纠缠，并用语言和语言四处走动。它指出了我们在追求一种分析途径而不是另一种分析途径时通常会忽略的东西。
