商品描述

This book examines the enduring legacies of slavery, colonialism, and apartheid, arguing that these are not merely historical events but ongoing injustices shaping systemic racism today. Through a six-fold framework, the book explores the links between the past and present (the residuality objective), the possibility of future injustices (the probability objective), and the necessity of rectificatory justice. The book also proposes pathways for addressing these legacies (the way-forward objective) while encouraging Black and African communities to focus on empowerment and resilience beyond demands for rectification (the beyond rectification and realistic resolution objectives). With a critical eye on the ongoing impacts of slavery, colonialism, and apartheid, the author challenges the notion that these injustices are mere historical relics. Instead, this book demonstrates how their residues are embedded in the systemic racism that persists today. It calls for a reckoning with the past to dismantle the structures of racism in the present.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書探討奴隸制、殖民主義和種族隔離的持久遺產,主張這些不僅僅是歷史事件,而是持續存在的不公正,塑造了今天的系統性種族主義。通過六個方面的框架,本書探討了過去與現在之間的聯繫(殘餘目標)、未來不公正的可能性(概率目標)以及修正性正義的必要性。本書還提出了解決這些遺產的途徑(前進目標),同時鼓勵黑人和非洲社區專注於賦權和韌性,而不僅僅是對修正的要求(超越修正和現實解決目標)。作者以批判的眼光看待奴隸制、殖民主義和種族隔離的持續影響,挑戰這些不公正僅僅是歷史遺跡的觀念。相反,本書展示了它們的殘餘如何嵌入當今持續存在的系統性種族主義中。它呼籲對過去進行清算,以拆除當前的種族主義結構。
