	7	+====Western metaphysics constructs and categorizes race via relation to the abstract machine of faciality. The machine creates an ideal white model of subjectivity and assigns privilege based on coherence with that model. ====

	11	+My disagreement is not with Fanon's and Martín Alcoff's insistence on embodiment and emotion
	12	+AND
	13	+, then, can't be countered with a Hegelian sublation into the universal.
	14	+
	15	+
	16	+====Subjects are constituted via relation to the face- the issue with current analyses is that they assume a dyadic model of either-or instead of realizing that the machine gains power from fixed identities. Bodies are marked in relation to how close they align with the white man face. Brown, yellow, tanned, black- these are all demarcations that are based in proximity as opposed to a totality. Instead of theorizing as race as a static category we have to see it as viscous substance.
	17	+
	18	+Race as viscosity means analyzing phenotype, discursive regimes, affective influences, ideas, and power structures and understanding their interplay in their construction of identity; only this model of race allows us to understand why violence is done to certain bodies. ====

	24	+
	25	+
	26	+====A traditional model of race would say the Aborigines were targeted because they were colored but the viscous model would say they were targeted because symbolic registers, common perception, their phenotype, and affective moods had designated these bodies as deviant bodies needing correction. It is precisely because the machine operates as such that we can rupture it. Only through the repositioning of vectors can we create new races; assemblages of queer forces are embodied in beings which sacrifice their ability to enter the system in favor of becoming terrorists to faciality.====

	32	+
	33	+
	34	+====The role of the ballot is to endorse the debater who best engages in racial unintelligibility. This means you should vote for whoever's praxis best serves as a probe head, allowing for the changing of the viscous nature of race to break down the white machine of faciality. Any form of knowledge production is contingent on our notion of becoming. ====

	37	+In this sense,learning centers on problems, not on solutions. The essence

	42	+===Part Two: Reorientation===
	43	+
	44	+
	45	+====Thus my advocacy:
	46	+
	47	+I affirm a limitation on qualified immunity as a Deleuzian probehead; an action that alters the vectors that make certain bodies targetable by dilluding the power relations articulated by the state.====

	50	+By contrast, the civil law, because of its greater flexibility and scope,
	51	+AND
	52	+so that the harm is not likely to be repeated.
	53	+This affirms
	54	+
	55	+
	56	+====A is playing field- limitations put individuals on the same level as cops in regards to the law. Individuals can be punished equally in regards to violations of law which means particular bodies can no longer be privileged in particular manners- even if it doesn't happen all the time it's a question of opening up that possibility. Law is always seen as benefitting those in power so changing the paradigm changes modalities of power and makes certain bodies seem legitimate as opposed to criminal.====
	57	+
	58	+
	59	+====B is compensation- targeted individuals can get compensation to fight the system in some way, means they can empower themselves in new ways that were not available in the past. ====
	60	+
	61	+
	62	+====C is reform- limits cause reforms two reasons 1- lawsuits mean that behavior is more likely to be uncovered and internal sanctions can be imposed 2- legal disputes are key, debate on whether or not action meets a standard or not forces deliberation and recalibration which is key to changing forces. That in turn can spillover to social change by bringing awareness to certain issues in new lights 3- no standardized rule forces reticulation of the law in particular circumstances – key to highlighting the nature of different modalities of race.
	63	+====
	64	+
	65	+
	66	+====Certain things are inevitable- but our method is a pragmatic step in the right direction. If the faciality machine grants unequal access to privilege, the a proliferation of race and a restructuring of the certain vectors means that the machine can be destroyed- we should use whiteness against itself- that undoes the natural link between white bodies and the privileged face. ====

	76	+Imperial America, murderous America, the America that abused and robbed countries like Bolivia —that America was me. I too was a settler; my Black feet were stained red with blood as I stood on stolen indigenous land. I too benefitted from colonialism, capitalism, and the other facets of White supremacy. I could no longer simply point the finger at White people. My marginalized identity didn't absolve me. I began to think systemically. I had to actually develop a multidimensional worldview and take political stances that drew on more than my lived experiences. When I returned to the United States and became involved in leftist politics, I soon realized that the political scene was, unfortunately, still stuck on personal identity.
