Abstract:
Using 50 interviews with black people about their fandoms (and anti-fandoms) of Tyler Perry’s media output, the blockbuster film Black Panther and the African American ballerina Misty Copeland, this article illuminates black fandom’s four interlocking discourses. First, must-see blackness describes black fans’ “civic duty” to see blackness in all of its forms. Second, economic consumption drives “must-see blackness” in the sense that black fans are cognizant of the precariousness of blackness’s existence in spaces that are either historically white and/or have been hostile to the presence of blackness. Third, black fandoms (and anti-fandoms) are driven by their pedagogical properties: how fit are fan objects for learning and role modeling? Finally, the pedagogical fitness of fan objects intersects with economic consumption and must-see blackness, which, in turn, illuminates black fans’ attentiveness to the machinations of the culture industries.

Abstract:
This essay takes on the task of reflecting on the keyword negro from a transnational standpoint that considers how negro/a/x, a sociopolitical identity, falls in and out of AfroLatinidad in Latin American and hispanic Caribbean diasporas. In particular, the author is concerned with re-centering Blacknesss in AfroLatinidad in response to the depoliticized usage of this identity. Through a focus on diaspora, movement, and the embodied fact of Blackness, the author argues that when thinking about negro (Black) and negritud (Blackness) from a transnational Spanish Caribbean context, we should remember that AfroLatinidad, or Black Latinidad, is first and foremost about Black lives, embodied experiences, movement, translatability, and untranslatability.

Full text
Abstract:
Too often the acknowledgment that race is a social construction ignores exactly how this construction occurs. By illuminating the way in which the category of blackness and black individuals are made, we can better see how race matters in America. Antidiscrimination policy, social science research, and the state's support of its citizens can all be improved by an accurate and concrete definition of blackness. Making Blackness, Making Policy argues that blackness and black people are literally made rather than discovered. The social construction of blackness involves the naming of individuals as black, and the subsequent interaction between this naming and racial projects. The process of naming involves an intersubjective dialogue in which racial self-identification and ascription by others lead to a consensus on an individual's race. These third parties include an individual's community, the media, and, crucially, the state. Following Ian Hacking, this process is most properly termed the dynamic nominalism of blackness. My dissertation uses analytic philosophy, qualitative and quantitative research, and historical analysis to defend this conception. The dynamic nominalist process is illustrated through the media's contribution to the making of Barack Obama's blackness, and the state's creation and maintenance of racial categories through law, policy, and enumeration. I then argue that the state's dominant role in creating blackness, and the vital role that a black identity plays in millions' sense of self, requires the United States Government to support a politics of recognition. The state's antidiscrimination efforts would also improve through the adoption of a dynamic nominalism of blackness. Replacing the Equal Employment Opportunities Commission's inconsistent and contradictory definitions of race with the dynamic nominalism of blackness would clarify when and how racial discrimination occurs.

Palmer, Lisa Amanda. "The politics of loving blackness in the UK." Thesis, University of Birmingham, 2011. http://etheses.bham.ac.uk//id/eprint/1508/.

Full text
Abstract:
Can ‘loving blackness’ become a new discourse for anti-racism in the UK and the broader black diaspora? This thesis will critically assess the concept of ‘loving blackness as political resistance’ as outlined by the African American feminist bell hooks (1992). The thesis will show the ways in which blackness has been both negated and denigrated in western cultures and thus constructed in opposition to notions of love and humanness. Conversely, love and blackness are also rehabilitated in different ways by Black diasporic populations in Britain through the transnational space. The transnational space can provide opportunities for constructing, networks of care, love and anti racist strategies that affirm the value of blackness and Black life. However, the transnational space can also be fraught with risks, dangers and exclusions providing Black and migrant populations with uneven forms of citizenship and belonging to western neo-liberal states. Loving blackness within a transnational context can help to create a dynamic space to affirm blackness against racial exclusions and dominations whilst providing a lens to suggest alternative ways of being human.

In previous papers1-5), blackness at fixed criteria have been measured by a method of adjustment and spectral efficiencies of blackness were obtained. In this research, the spatial blackness induction was measured as a function of log retinal illuminance of monochromatic inducing-field using a color naming method and a method of adjustment and then the spectral efficiencies of blackness induction at three different criteria, black=95%, black=white and black=5%, were obtained.

Full text
Abstract:
Three color-normal observers described the appearance pf colors in conditions of temporal induction. One of four inducing fields (unique blue, unique green, unique yellow, unique white) was foveally viewed for 5 s followed immediately by a reference stimulus of the same size (0.75°) and spatial location as the inducing field. After presentation of this temporal sequence, the observers described the reference stimulus by assigning percentages to the terms red, green, yellow, blue, black, and white. The reference stimulus was 3 or 5 trolands and appeared achromatic to the observer when viewed without the inducing field. The inducing field ranged in intensity from −0.4 to 3.2 log td. At the low illuminance levels the reference stimulus changed its appearance; both chromatic and achromatic color induction occurred. As the illuminance of the inducing field increased, the reference stimulus gradually became blacker and the chromatic components less prominent. The retinal illuminance level at which the reference stimulus appeared 100% black was the same for the four different inducing fields.

Full text
Abstract:
The additivity of induced blackness was tested in conditions of temporal contrast. Two adult observers foveally viewed an inducing field composed of either one of seven variable wavelengths (430-670 nm, 40-nm steps), one of two addend wavelengths (510 and 630 nm), or a combination of one variable wavelength and one addend wavelength for 5 s followed immediately by a broadband (5500-K) reference stimulus of the same size (0.75°) and spatial location as the inducing field. The observers increased the radiance of the inducing field until the reference stimulus appeared completely black. Additivity tests were also obtained with the same wavelength combinations for each observer using heterochromatic flicker photometry (HFP) and direct brightness matching. The additivity results from blackness induction resembled those from HFP, whereas the results from brightness matching showed clear additivity failures of the cancellation type. These findings were also corroborated by additivity tests performed on spatially induced blackness. These data indicate that the perception of blackness is mediated by neural mechanisms that additively combine the input of middle- and long-wave photoreceptors.

Full text
Abstract:
We have used numerical simulations to study dark soliton collisions in optical fibers. The starting field consists of two gray solitons either on an infinite background or on a finite duration background pulse. The phase profiles of the input gray solitons are chosen so that they have equal and opposite velocities with respect to the background. According to simulations that use the conventional nonlinear Schrodinger equation, the dark solitons pass through each other and emerge unchanged except for a temporal shift, in confirmation of the soliton nature of the input pulses. As the blackness1 (i.e., the soliton depth) is increased toward 1.0, the relative velocity of the solitons decreases toward zero and the temporal shift resulting from the collision increases. The blackness dependence of the shift is determined. When the blackness is less than about (3/4)0.5 (minimum intensity greater than one-quarter of the maximum), there is a single minimum in the resultant intensity at the time of intersection. For blacker pulses, there is always a double minimum in the intensity. When the Raman contribution to the nonlinear index is included,2 the slower soliton becomes blacker and more shifted than the faster one. These calculations lay the groundwork for possible experiments aimed at observation of dark soliton collisions.
