My response further highlights and contextualizes the discursive noise of white silence by linking it to the white “epistemology of ignorance” among others. This way, we can also see, quite vividly, how relational psychoanalytic thinking and postmodern theorizing translate each other. Such is how the inside-outside dyadic and dynamic, common to both strands of thinking, begins to shift its gears in the able hands of Harris, whose microaural attention to primarily visual experiences such as racial encounters remains instructive
