Cet ouvrage collectif (quatre auteurs) montre comment des structures persistantes dans l’enseignement supérieur sont mobilisées dans le cadre de la signature de la Charte de Scarborough sur le racisme envers les Noirs et l’inclusion des Noirs dans l’enseignement supérieur canadien : principes, mesures et responsabilisation. Nous considérons que cet événement est contradictoire, un acte qui nécessite d’établir des liens et de faire preuve de responsabilisation. Conscients des promesses et des risques de ce travail, et inspirés par les pratiques féministes noires et coalitionnelles qui se détournent des voies et des savoirs préétablis dans les universités et se réorientent vers d’autres façons d’être, nous nommons ce processus « fabulation poétique ». Nous commençons avec de la poésie et poursuivons avec sept strophes qui orientent les réflexions thématiques dans chaque section de prose qui suit. La multiplicité des voix de cet ouvrage témoigne de l’expérience des auteurs dans ce domaine. L’interrègne qui suit la strophe 4 s’inscrit dans les registres simultanés et indisciplinés de la poésie, de l’analyse, de l’affect et du somatique, et vient interrompre le courant des choses et illustrer notre façon de travailler au sein de l’académie. Notre travail est collaboratif, mais il implique aussi d’être interpellé et de réagir de différentes manières. En faisant appel à tout un éventail de compétences créatives et analytiques, nous évoluons vers des objectifs communs afin de comprendre ce dont nous sommes témoins dans les établissements d’enseignement postsecondaire, de tenir compte des effets du pouvoir discrétionnaire et de nous en préoccuper.
