B-Impact 2 - And this abstraction allows us to assume racist entities will somehow act justly rather than looking to how they have historically acted.

Warren, Assistant Professor of American Studies at Columbian College of Arts and Sciences, “Black Nihilism and the Politics of Hope” p. 4-5) Antiblack colonalism actualizes a death ethic of war that produces a permanent state of exception that allows the naturalization of war waged on racialized sexualized bodies- this justifies the rapeability and killability of colonized peoples Maldonado- Torres 08 (Nelson Maldonado- Torres, associate professor of comparative literature at Rutgers University, “Against War: Views from the Underside of Modernity” p. 217-221)

Tournament: Lexington | Round: 5 | Opponent: NA | Judge: NA 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. Turns case. Syliva Wynter—2006 ( “Interview with Syliva Wynter,ProudFlesh Interview: New Afrikan Journal of Culture, Politics and Consciousness, Issue 4) critical thesis on… does the constructing? 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 Negative’s position is not simply about a difference of values about the world, rather this is a difference about how the Aff reifies and naturalizes the structures, systems, and types of knowledge that perpetuate the cultural concepts of white supremacy. Sylvia Wynter—1992 (“Beyond the Categories of the Master Conception: The Counterdoctrine of the Jamesian Poiesis,” in C.L.R. James Caribbean, eds. Paget Henry and Paul Buhle, 63-91) To be effective… discourses are constructed. III. Here’s a Big Ass Impact and another Link to this Theoretical crap: they 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. The alt is to reject the aff in order to produce knowledge that centers around the antihuman as a starting point Wynter 3 (Sylvia Wynter, “Unsettling the Coloniality of Being/Power/Truth/Freedom: Towards the Human, After Man, Its Overrepresentation--An Argument,” CR: The New Centennial Review, Volume 3, Number 3,257-337) the struggle of… the rest of us”
