Abstract
ABSTRACT This essay presents a theory of subjectivity. Blackness, a concept articulated by the form of life of its subjects, is expressed by a recursive operation whose output produces a discrete infinity. Generating different identities dependent upon context, blackness’ expressions are not random but appropriate, and yet not necessarily caused by nor solely in reaction to the conditions in which it appears. In this way, we prove a continuity of blackness despite the discrete yet non-determinate set of possible variations on Black identity entailed by the names attributed or imposed upon it. I plan to illustrate the difference between subject continuity, a concept expressed by the function of an operation whose domain is a cultural endowment, and stipulations of identity that seek to enclose infinity within finitude.
