-We affirm Habeas Viscus, a relational assemblage which transforms the hieroglyphics of the flesh into a line of flight, a new type of sumptuous freedom which can interrupt racializing assemblages – whereas dialectically opposing the world of Man only naturalizes it, our affirmation instantiates new genres of humanity through modes like maroon abolitionism |
