+Saying “we ought to engage in something” implies a moral obligation that the black thinker does not have access to because the world is framed by white supremacy. We must articulate possibilities for countries to recognize the ethicality of Blackness.

+This resolution calls us to question what actions do countries need to take in order to resolve some of the problems. It’s not about whether or not the actors will do it but, if we all know that these actors are morally culpable for having resources that are being seen corrupt by its people, then we must come up with strategies to fix the problem. Therefore, I affirm the resolution. Countries ought to prohibit the production of nuclear power. |

+And, that form of antiblackness has transcended time. Nuclear production continues to be a problem for Black/Brown people globally.
