LIMA, Fátima. Trauma, coloniality, and Frantz Fanon's sociogenesis: studying subjectivities at the crossroads. Arq. bras. psicol. [online]. 2020, vol.72, n.spe, pp. 80-93. ISSN 1809-5267.  http://dx.doi.org/10.36482/1809-5267.arbp2020v72s1p.80-93.

Grounded on recent discussions about the colonial trauma and on Frantz Fanon's concept of sociogenesis, this paper problematizes the notions of subject and subjectivity as they have been produced by Eurocentric lenses. The aim is to bring these notions to the level of visibility and sayability with a view to highlighting their inability to understand the subjective processes of living while Black. White hegemony is paramount for us to understand what we may call traumatic events in/of Black experiences. I argue for the urgency of decolonizing the I and the world. This can only be done through a critique of colonial violence. Such a critique aims to open affordances for Black people to constitute themselves as subjects own their own rights rather than as the Other of whiteness.

Palavras-chave : trauma; coloniality; sociogenesis; subjectivity; black lives.
