TEXT: The United States federal government will give up all control to black people and enslave all white people. 

Whiteness is a social, political structure that has no hope of reform.  It is premised on the basis of domination, authority, and perceived humanity.   Making white people non-human is key.

The 1AC falls into the trap of linear time- they analyze time as a series of events that independently happen. There’s the past, present and the future. What they fail to realize is that the narrative of linear time is a tool used by the state and dominant powers to placate revolution and reinforce the idea that structural violence can be changed by appeals to legislation.

I. There is no hope to deal with the question of “humanity,” the potential of what “humans” should be, should think, and how they should act based on these stances within the anthropology of white European models of thought.  Regardless of the “critique,” the white call to action allows Europe the continued power to construct “MAN,” within their own systems of thought. Their position is just another example of a moral plea to white decadent anthropology.

II. Social systems of power must be discursively legitimated. The issue is not “what we speak,” but how “what we speak,” perpetuates very specific cultural determinations of how systems work and respond to our discursive appeals. The Affirmative’s position is not simply about a difference of values about the world, rather this is a difference about how the Affirmative reifies and naturalizes the structures, systems, and types of knowledge that perpetuate the cultural concepts of white supremacism.

VI. Here’s a Big Ass Impact and another Link to this Theoretical Shit: The Affirmative cannot claim to address much less solve any problems of human existence without addressing Racism first and foremost. This in and of itself misses the anthropological cause of colonial/neo-colonial differences the world over. This is not to say that Racism is in itself of more consequence than other problems, but to say that Racism is the template of modernity used to refuse humanity to other people, to make them different kinds of things that do not deserve humanity. Our focus on race, class, gender, sexual orientation, poverty, global warming, the prison industrial complex, refugee/migration from reterritorialization, African civil wars and AIDs, depend on addressing the divestment of humanity from Black people as the template of understanding the worldwide utilization of this model for oppression.
