  • Gramsci. Durban.

    Open AccessGrant FarredARTICLESafundi2026

    Antonio Gramsci is a figure of import for Sharad Chari’s thinking. Titularly so in his earlier pamphlet, Gramsci at Sea,1 but also conceptually so in Apartheid Remains. The work of the intellectual...

  • Mind of Blue

    Open AccessGrant FarredARTICLEAngelaki2025

This essay’s principal jazz musicians are Miles Davis, Ornette Coleman, and Herbie Hancock. With turns to a range of other jazz artists, most notably Thelonious Monk. The principal philosopher is Martin Heidegger, whose thinking is supplemented by the work of scholars specializing in the music of Coleman and Davis…

  • What Is Native to Philosophy

    Grant FarredARTICLEPhilosophia Africana2023

    This response to Bruce Janz’s African Philosophy and Enactivist Cognition (2023) uses the work of Martin Heidegger and Stanley Cavell to understand the relationship among philosophy, thinking, and place and, most crucially, Africa as a place from which philosophy might be thought, that is, might be proposed as native to philosophy. Invoking the late Heidegger, for whom thinking presents itself as the question, and Cavell’s use of Ralph Waldo Emer…

  • The Work of Staying-With

    Open AccessGrant FarredARTICLEJournal of French and Francophone…2023

    There is a breathlessness to Frantz Fanon’s Black Skin, White Masks. Fanon leaves us in no doubt that he is an author with a great deal to say about matters, among which racism, colonialism and the effect of both on the black body and psyche are his preeminent concern, that are politically urgent. As they are. Such is Fanon’s urgency that he uses every resource at his disposal – works of literature that turn on the colonial condition, psychoanaly…

  • Only a Black Athlete Can Save Us Now

    Grant FarredBOOKOnly a Black Athlete Can Save Us…2022

    Starting with the refusal of George Hill of the Milwaukee Bucks to participate in an August 2020 playoff game following the shooting of Jacob Blake by police in Kenosha, Wisconsin, Grant Farred shows how the Covid-restricted NBA â bubbleâ released an energy that spurred athletes into radical action. They disrupted athletic normalcy, and in their grief and rage against American racism they demonstrated the true progressivism lacking in even the mo…

  • Daseinstufe

    Open AccessGrant FarredARTICLEliquid blackness2021Citada por: 2Referencias: 2

    Beginning with the premise that “liquidity” is an abstraction, this essay takes up liquidity as the condition for thinking capital, race, and racism, the ways in which capital shapes the possibilities of being—black—in the world. Using a range of theorists, from Karl Marx to Carl Schmitt to Martin Luther King Jr., and a host of cultural figures, most prominently Colin Kaepernick, the author explores how the black body, in its stillness and in its…

  • What weight can a language bear? Translatability and Ngugi wa Thiong'o

    Open AccessGrant FarredARTICLEBulletin of the School of…2018Referencias: 3

    Using theorists such as Deleuze, Guattari and Heidegger, this essay is a critique of Ngugi wa Thiong'o's much publicized decision to write in Gikuyu rather than English, the language Ngugi condemns as the instrument of colonialism and its successor, neo-imperialism. In line with Deleuze and Guattari's argument that Kafka's work is best apprehended as the determination to make German bear the full weight of his "minor" (as a Czech Jew) experience,…

  • Letting-be

    Open AccessGrant FarredARTICLEJournal of French and Francophone…2017

    It is dwelling that allows mortals to initiate themselves in time and space. As such, dwelling constitutes the event of being. In his essay “Building Dwelling Thinking,” Martin Heidegger stipulates that dwelling can only be achieved through harmonious relations among the constituents, earth, sky, mortals and gods (“divinities”), of the “fourfold.” Heidegger writes, “To preserve the fourfold, to save the earth, to receive the sky, to await the div…

  • Alterity is a Negative Concept of the Same

    Open AccessGrant FarredARTICLEJournal of French and Francophone…2016Citada por: 1Referencias: 1

    Philosophical anthropology is a tradition that is as old as philosophy itself, so much so that it might be said to be indistinguishable from philosophy itself. Philosophical anthropology, extending as it does from Socrates to Sartre, best describes the work of V.Y. Mudimbe. Anthropology, broadly conceived as the science that studies human origins, the material and cultural development of humanity (philosophical anthropology concerns itself with h…

  • Love is Asymmetrical

    Grant FarredARTICLECritical Philosophy of Race2015Citada por: 2

    This essay considers James Baldwin's The Fire Next Time as a philosophical contemplation on love. Drawing on sources such as the Bible, Jacques Derrida (from whom the notion of "asymmetrical love" derives), and a host of Baldwin critics, this essay understands the Christian love of The Fire Next Time as asymmetrical. The asymmetry of love derives from its understanding of love as the responsibility to Self and Other that demands no reciprocation.…

  • In Motion, At Rest

    Grant FarredBOOKIn Motion, at Rest2014

    Using the work of Alain Badiou, Gilles Deleuze and Jacques Derrida, “In Motion, At Rest: The Event of the Athletic Body,” explores three events in sport: Ron Artest in basketball and Eric Cantona and Zinedine Zidane in football (soccer). The sports event, “In Motion” argues, reveals the ways in which the intensity and opacity of the event is most visible in sport. Theorizing the event through sport makes possible a new thinking of the event, reve…
