Sharing this call for chapters with my network for reach more on this project below. #BlackMothers #Othermothers #Kinships #Blackwoman #BlackScholars #Intersectionality This book seeks to highlight the narratives, perspectives, and realities of Black mother scholarship. This work extends upon the existing scholarship of generations of Black women scholars who have illuminated the multidimensional impact of gender and race on Black women in institutions of higher education. Their work illustrates the various ways our voices are underrepresented, misrepresented, and all together silenced as we counter normative understandings of knowledge production, Black womanhood, and motherhood within white supremacist spaces. In opposition to this silencing, the voices of the Black women must be at the forefront of defining and conceptualizing how institutional policies and practices can support the intersectional experiences of Black mother scholarship.

I'm so excited!!! My article "Articulating and Interrogating Black Embodied Resistance: Using Performative Symbolic Resistance as a Tactical, Analytical Tool,”  published in the online open-access journal, Constellations, was recently honored through selection for inclusion in the 2023 Best of Rhetoric and Composition Journals collection from Parlor Press. In this article, I present my methodological, analytical framework Performative Symbolic Resistance (PSR), which provides language for rhetorically encapsulating what happens when bodies and spaces are used simultaneously to engage in resistant acts (think Kaepernick's kneeling and Naomi Osaka's mask wearing at the U.S. Open). I also present The PSR Puzzle, which provides 1) criteria for determining if a resistant act is PSR and 2) a corresponding data collection tool. https://lnkd.in/esRXAcaD

In a new article for the Annual Reviews, ERI Associate Director Dr. Jody Agius Vallejo and Dr. Jessica Vasquez-Tokos critically examine the complexities of the Latino middle class. The article, "The Latino Middle Class," discusses how educational gains, income mobility, and non-traditional career paths contribute to upward mobility, despite structural barriers and societal biases. Latinos are redefining middle-class identity in the U.S., expanding it beyond conventional frameworks. Read the full article here: https://bit.ly/4ewmiDc

This is my plug for the roles that subjective interpretation, intuition, ambiguity, expressiveness and artistry can play in (re)solving problems.

COURSE OFFERING: Bibliography and Black American Print Culture Descriptive bibliography, analytical bibliography, and textual criticism have long been a part of the methods by which literary historians have traced the bibliographical genealogies of textual transmission for a given title or body of work. However, once retooled toward a more expansive and inclusive perspective, bibliography can be implemented in ways that can contribute to deeper understandings of Black print culture. For Black Americans in particular, bibliography has been a pathway to establishing selfhood and fostering a rich intellectual and literary tradition of resistance. Looking at the history of Black American writers, poets, scholars, publishers, and printers from a viewpoint of material culture, this course will apply bibliographical methods to the analysis of Black print culture. From Jupiter Hammon to the Street lit of today, from yesterday’s ephemera to today’s typefaces, we will begin to explore the various ways in which books and periodicals have been both racialized and racially gendered in their material facets. #blackbibliography #bibliography #blackprintculture #printculture #popularculture #textualstudies #literaryhistory #literarytradition
