Abstract: Aracelis Girmay’s the black maria (2016) is a collection of diasporic poems grieving the conditions of blackness, migrant struggle, and the lives that succumb to the swallow of the sea; but also celebrating the sea as that which subtends black life all around. I read Girmay’s poems through, and as an extension of what Christina Sharpe calls “wake work” to think together the conditions of black life, oceanity, and space—within and against the current global, phobogenic, onto-epistemological order of racialized violence, as a labor of the bringing-into-being of yet-unimagined and/or yet-unrealized formations of freedom and the forms of life from which they could emerge.
*Quote from Girmay's poem, ‘prayer and letter to the dead’, elelegy, the black maria, 25.

This paper attends to differing praxes of futurity circulating in Colombia, both in dominant and subaltern forms. It first considers temporality as an apparatus of governmentality, raison d’état, and settler colonial logics of violence deployed in the service of late liberalism, capitalist endeavor, and the so-called “peace dividend.” In contrast, it elaborates two distinct rights claims that counter official state claims on the future: the principle of the right to a distinct vision of the future in Colombia’s black Pacific social movement; and the legal claim of the right of future generations in a historic 2018 lawsuit brought against the government by several youth from diverse regions across the country. These claims pose what I name as a “chrono-logics” otherwise – temporal alterities that refuse the logics of settler colonial temporality and insist on an ecology of relations that pursue the survival and flourishing of diverse lifeworlds and futures.
This paper aims to think forms of state violence perpetrated against specific populations in Colombia as part of the biopolitical production of the present, towards the constitution and regulation of subjects, where states of exception are legitimated as necessary to the maintenance of democracy, the consolidation of national identity, and the economic stimulus hegemonically understood as necessary to notions of ‘national progress’. In particular, it seeks to analyze the 2001 massacre at Alto Naya, as an instance of state-backed genocidal violence targeting Afro-Colombian and indigenous groups, in order to ask how such destructive events extend beyond the event itself, but live on, productive of a particular social and (bio)political order, contoured through the raison d’état, which discourses gross human rights violations as a necessary element to the ultimate well-being and success of civil society, and of the nation-state.
