“Intersectionality is the acknowledgment of a point at which two or more signs agree; Intentions, words, actions, influences, and consequences refer to the systematic pattern of communication that defines reality.”

[Pg 26]
Race reality in Blackdom, c.1903, was separated from Roswell, New Mexico, located 20 miles North. Race was an intersection for free people under the conditions of Blackness whose sovereign ambitions motivated their actions. As a consequence, the Blackdom Townsite Co. was a manifestation of agreements amongst Blackdomites and certified by governing bodies in the region.
Blackdom was located in Chaves County, the Southeastern Section of the New Mexico Territory. Roswellian society was influenced by the Southern Confederate semiotics and was the designated county hub in this frontier space. Indigenous stolen land was the intersection for Blackdom and Roswell. In agreement, both Blackdomites and Roswellians laid claim to Apache land.
The Borderlands of Mexico’s northern frontier was fragmented by genocidal wars and segmented for exploitation. Blackdom served as a quarantine from the virus of White supremacy that infected the Mexico-U.S. Borderlands. Blackdomites maintained their freedoms and gained sovereignty by investing before, during and after the chaos. They capitalized on opportunities by employing collective action in 1903, 1909, and 1919. Black sovereignty resulted as a consequence of systematic patterns of communication influenced by Afro-Frontierism®.
