Abstract
“For the Black woman, place and space come together in the New World […] irrevocably linking [the] inner place or space […] with the outer space”. This provocative statement was posed by the afro-caribbean-canadian poet Marlene Nourbese Philip (1997:77), in her book of poetry She Tries Her Tongue, Her Silence Softly Breaks (1989). During slavery space defined and codified the identity of the Black female slaves in the New World, expanding the “coloniality of power” (GROSFOGUEL 2012; 2008), that is, the Eurocentric perceptions that oriented scientific and social thought, to the image of the black female body. Not only was the image marked with such coloniality. The language through which such views were disseminated to explore and dominate Black women, leaving in them a permanent negative also carried coloniality in its structure. Therefore, in order to confront these negative signs, Marlene Nourbese Philip undertakes the task of decolonizing these spaces through a “genealogy of resistance”, questioning those fixed notions of a negative identity and the role of the English language itself, the “Father language”, the language that constructed the Black females‟ body connecting it to colonization. Philip decolonizes these spaces – the female body and the plantation – displacing the European narrative of inferiority while resignifying then through strategies born at the subordinate side of difference, breaking with the hegemonic discourses. Her questioning shifts from the visible result – inferiority, racism, sexism – to the strategies employed and which are behind these stereotyped views and perceptions of blacks.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
