Описание: In scenery lyrics public voice, and memoirs personal reconciliations confront the archives of Americas racial and legal histories, resulting in a genre bending exploration of what it means to exist as oneself for an Other. The author, a Salvadorean immigrant and parent, reflects on the status of personhood in America between racial supremacy and racial disavowal, thinking through his own structural role as a naturalized citizen, and naturalizations historical condition in the denial of full legal and emotional Black personhood. The writing delves into the archive of liberal humanism from colonial era writing on the competing status of slaves versus converts, to the Dred Scott decisions framing of naturalization, up through the rise of model minoritism during the LA Riots, while the visual archive of public news provides an ekphrastic environment to the authors bigger lyric-memory, being the parent of a biracial American born child in a contemporary era accentuated by violence, nationalism, and fear. From 17th-Century casta paintings up to contemporary coverage of domestic unrest and riots, from the delivery room to scenes of parenthood, Alvergue ponders: what is the kind of emotion a face demonstrates, or a body, an assembly? How does the immediate need of an emotion without form resist the collective public archive and its abundance of silent, static lessons? scenery approaches, in an asymptotic manner, the empathy we come to feel when the language weve made is dulled by the roles we are also expected to occupy against each other.
