回应最近的工作在关键的制图研究和黑人地理，本文的目的是提供一个概念框架和一套令人回味的制图活动，可以告知地理，因为它恢复了很少讨论的历史反映射内的非裔美国人的自由斗争。抗黑制图延伸了构成地图的内容，地图所做的政治工作，以及地图的实践、空间和政治情感维度。我们提供了一个扩展的说明背后的美国反私刑运动的19世纪末和20世纪初的传统和非传统的映射，突出了全国有色人种协进会和塔斯基吉研究所的门罗工作的知识生产实践，和记者/活动家艾达B体现反映射。威尔斯。认识到民权斗争是长期的，总是展开的，并随着时间和空间的关系联系在一起，我们将这种从过去到当代的，持续抵抗的制图实践联系起来，因为学者/活动家继续挑战种族化的暴力和推进过渡时期司法，包括平等司法倡议的著名记忆工作。对非裔美国人反映射传统的理解不仅仅是简单地将黑人的经验插入我们关于地图学甚至抵抗性映射的主导思想中。黑人地理学有很多东西可以教给地图学和地理学家，关于从事反种族主义斗争的有色人种如何定义他们自己的地理知识和地图实践，希望能激发对这门学科本身更广泛和更具包容性的定义。
Responding to recent work in critical cartographic studies and Black Geographies, the purpose of this paper is to offer a conceptual framework and a set of evocative cartographic engagements that can inform geography as it recovers the seldom discussed history of counter-mapping within the African American Freedom Struggle. Black resistant cartographies stretch what constitutes a map, the political work performed by maps, and the practices, spaces, and political-affective dimensions of mapping. We offer an extended illustration of the conventional and unconventional mapping behind USA anti-lynching campaigns of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, highlighting the knowledge production practices of the NAACP and the Tuskegee Institute's Monroe Work, and the embodied counter-mapping of journalist/activist Ida B. Wells. Recognizing that civil rights struggles are long, always unfolding, and relationally tied over time and space, we link this look from the past to contemporary, ongoing resistant cartographical practices as scholars/activists continue to challenge racialized violence and advance transitional justice, including the noted memory-work of the Equal Justice Initiative. An understanding of African American traditions of counter-mapping is about more than simply inserting the Black experience into our dominant ideas about cartography or even resistant mapping. Black geographies has much to teach cartography and geographers about what people of color engaged in antiracist struggles define as geographic knowledge and mapping practices on their own terms-hopefully provoking a broader and more inclusive definition of the discipline itself.
