The presentation will introduce the \u201cjournal as method,\u201d an approach developed with Koni Benson and Mahvish Ahmad as part of the Revolutionary Papers collective. By this we mean approaching the journal as a social object\u2014embedded in the relationships, contributions, conversations, and collective labors that brought it into being\u2014rather than as a static archive of individually authored texts. I will discuss ways in which scholars can shift our attention from focusing on isolated articles to the processes, conversations, and political commitments that shaped the journal\u2019s form and life. The method approaches anticolonial journals were not just as containers of information, but as active, processual tools of worldmaking. Produced by many hands\u2014writers, editors, printers, distributors\u2014these publications generated thought and culture in the midst of struggle, forged counterhegemonic ideas and aesthetics, and created spaces for collective creation and debate. In centering these collaborative dynamics, we work to interrupt the binary between \u201cprimary\u201d and \u201csecondary\u201d sources, push back against the primacy of individual authorship, and reframe periodicals as living institutions of thought whose practices remain relevant to how anticolonialism can be studied and practiced today.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
