- W2465702988 abstract "In his early, seminal volume on the figure of the Black German culture, On Blackness Without Blacks, Sander Gilman argued that the uniqueness of the German conception of lay its paradoxical development the virtual absence of a black presence. Gilman maintained that Germany, the image of developed independently of reality, composed rather of elements taken from external traditions and altered to fit certain needs of a radically different culture. He described this image as an accretion of borrowings which were altered and shaped to create patterns into which these projections were cast. According to Gilman, this mirage of blackness defined German responses to Blacks when the latter were eventually confronted in reality (On Blackness xi).l Yet as more recent analyses of German colonial history and the history of Blacks Germany have demonstrated, German conceptions of and Black Germans particular have been shaped profound ways by a series of encounters with Blacks both domestically and its former colonial territories.2 As part of this emerging body of literature, this essay attempts to add important historical dimension to our understanding of contemporary articulations of Black German identity and subjectivity through examination of some of the early discourses of enunciated Germany society. These discourses would have a lingering influence on later attempts by the Black German community to construct the terms of their identification as Black people as the implicit and explicit negation against which they were often forced to define themselves. In the early 20th century, the status of Germany's mixed-race Black citizens was contested and constructed public and political discourse as a threat to the survival of the German nation. By extension, the imagined danger posed by this spectre was expressed Germany as a sense of racial endangerment seen to have dire consequences for the future of the white race. Like many nationalist discourses, it too invoked the need for a defensive mobilization and unification against internal enemy constituted along complexly gendered lines of racial difference. My analysis explores how Germany's response to its Afro-German population the last quarter of the 19th century constituted this group as a dangerous spectre. Focusing on two of the most important historical events the formation of the public discourse on AfroGermans, it engages how the threat posed by this spectre was mobilized with particularly volatile effects. I examine how the threat of miscegenation was articulated through a discourse of racial endangerment the German colonies the debates" @default.
