Bad Faith and Antiblack Racism
Lewis Ricardo Gordon
Lewis Gordon presents
the first detailed existential phenomenological investigation of
antiblack racism as a form of Sartrean bad faith. Bad faith, the
attitude in which human beings attempt to evade freedom and
responsibility, is treated as a constant possibility of human existence.
Antiblack racism, the attitude and practice that involve the
construction of black people as fundamentally inferior and subhuman, is
examined as an effort to evade the responsibilities of a human and
humane world. Gordon argues that the concept of bad faith militates
against any human science that is built upon a theory of human nature
and as such offers an analysis of antiblack racism that stands as a
challenge to our ordinary assumptions of what it means to be human.
