2. By seeking to amplify the divergent ways race and racialization operate with/in different geographic and cultural contexts, the RCT project openly embraces the impossibility of being finished. Here, the *indefinite* is taken up as a critical imperative released from completion’s normative grasp. The dispersal of authorial responsibility amongst our contributors seeks to animate, rather than resolve, triangular tensions between race and racialization as concurrently local, global and onto-epistemological formations. Our aim is to gesture toward a varying abundance rather than a closed schema—a way of doing, knowing and sharing knowledge that is mindful of the shifting ways the concept of race arranges presuppositions that inform our capacity to be and live together. As Nahum Chandler reminds us: “There is no contemporary discourse that is free or independent of the itinerary of the concept of race.” </br></br>
3. The unfinished or in-process nature of this syllabus network also speaks to our interest in bringing together distinct communities, disciplines, problems, etc., into a conversation of productive discomfort or incommensurability. In line with Tuck & Yang, the RCT project is committed to an “ethic of incommensurability,” and all the complexity this entails. Our approach and invitation is not solutionist, but one that recognizes solidarity as tenuous, uneven, fragile, yet necessary. </br>
