Abstract
Following in the wave of scholarship on imprisoned intellectuals and activists, this brief examination considers the sound produced by the incarcerated Marcus Garvey who used his song “Keep Cool” as a method of escape and political possibility through musical composition. Richard Iton's work on visibility and the problematics of the Black citizen-subject provides a compelling series of theorizations and queries in my thinking on how incarcerated Black men and women are differently exposed to and in rebellion of state violences as the socially and civilly (un)dead who both elucidate and put pressure on Iton's “black fantastic."
