This chapter scrutinises waiting as a corpo-affective and sensorial phenomenon of daily lived structural marginalisation that surfaces in the intersection of agential specifically situated materialities, geopolitical and socio-environmental contexts and several axes of difference and has rich methodological capacities as an embodied concept. The discussion proposes that, as an embodied concept, waiting might be practised as a capacious method of inquiry that cross-pollinates new materialist and intersectional critique. As the text attends to two situations of waiting, it charges towards a proposition that two theoretical stances have sibling intentionalities that enrich each other. The first situation is autoethnographic. It introduces a mundane encounter in a post office where waiting and anticipation emerge in the intersection of the material-discursive agency of one’s identity card and its colours, the privilege of whiteness within a given regime of visuality, migration, nationality, and material circumstances of the COVID-19 pandemic. The other situation engages with Hiwa K’s artwork where waiting emerges as an embodied orientation tool for survival when a Brown man seeking a refuge encounters the Mediterranean and overall European necropolitical and racist regimes of borders and of visuality as well as both figuratively and literally ‘climate of anti-blackness’ (Sharpe 2016). The chapter concludes that while both waitings speak of structural injustice and emerge in the intersection of multiple axes of difference and agential matterings, neither of the waitings can be automatically scrutinised with Kimberly Crenshaw’s intersectionality. Each requires further development and/or ethico-political nuancement of the concept as a method.
