Segregated Time

Although typically conceived in terms of space, Segregated Time argues that racial segregation and inequality are also sustained through impositions on human time. Drawing on a range of Africana, Latinx, and Indigenous political thought, P.J. Brendese demonstrates the way in which time is weaponized against people of color and advances a theory of white time as a possessive, acquisitive, colonizing force. Segregated Time critically examines the racialization of those defined as as behind the times, how racial others are cast out of time, perpetually forced to "do time" in a carceral society, and to perish in the segregated times of climate apocalypse.
