    Introduction: African American novels in the Black Lives Matter era : transgressive performativity of black vulnerability as praxis in everyday life -- Embodied spaces of transformative change in the "homeless" city : affective possibilities of becoming black in Daniel Black's Listen to the lambs (2016) -- Performing transgressive silence as strategic resistance to whiteness : progressive spaces of black male subjectivity in Sister Souljah's A moment of silence: midnight III (2015) -- Toward new performatives of Blackness as embodied praxis : affective shifts in the carceral spatiality of whiteness in Walter Mosley's Charcoal Joe (2016) -- Reframing the "scripted" vulnerability of whiteness as violence : the praxis of the wake in Victoria C. Murray's Stand your ground (2015) -- Strategic interventions in the carceral spaces of whiteness : subversive politics of black male criminality in Walter Mosley's Down the river unto the sea (2018) -- Afterword: The Kaepernick moment as critique of everyday life : transgressive practices of blackness as a strategy for change. "African American Novels in the Black Lives Matter Era: Transgressive Performativity of Black Vulnerability as Praxis in Everyday Life explores the undoing of whiteness by black people, who dissociate from scripts of black criminality through radical performative reiterations of black vulnerability. It studies five novels that challenge the embodied discursive practices of whiteness in interracial social encounters, showing how they use strategic performances of Blackness to enable subversive practices in everyday life, which is constructed and governed by white mechanisms of racialized control. The agency portrayed in these novels opens up alternative spaces of Blackness to impact the social world and effects transformative change as a forceful critique of everyday life. African American Novels in the Black Lives Matter Era shows how these novels reformulate the problem of black vulnerability as a constitutive source of the right to life in their refusal of subjection to vulnerability, enacted by white institutional and individual forms of violence. It positions a white-black-encounter-oriented reading of these neo-resistance novels of the Black Lives Matter era as a critique of everyday life in an effort to explore spaces of radical performativity of blackness to make happen social change and transformation."--
