Yall, I just dont know about #HandsUp, die-ins and these other achingly submissive visual and vocal forms of protest, including the embrace of #EricGarners last words, #ICantBreathe, as a rallying cry. Something doesnt feel right about resistance iconography looking and sounding like docility and death. And what of the psychic impact of meekness--of the performance of resignation?...Compliance as a form of the radical...I just dont know. It just doesnt feel right in my soul. When or HOW did the performance of powerlessness become a revolutionary trope? How did masochism become a political strategy?
