Geeked to be in Black Feminist Theories: Transnational Approaches! I have a chapter where I talk about dandelions and misogynoir!

Cover of Black Feminist Theories: Transnational Approaches. With text above that reads Black Feminism is for Everybody

If you think about race, gender, work, desire, culture, power or freedom, this conversation is for you.

Fam, my friend Ashon Crawley (one of the co-authors of my last book, Read This When Things Fall Apart) was in a freak accident this past week. A piece of weight-lifting equipment at a gym malfunctioned and damaged his legs. Ashon's beloved dog Speckles needs care while he recovers. If you can help:

Dawn doesn't get to be sore loser. McEnroe's antics were a feature not a bug when he played; Serena was called out everytime she was upset. You know it's #misogynoir when a Black woman does the same thing w/ diffirent consequences. Geno's benevolent patriarchy works until the women aren't his girls

White male privilege is Geno getting to disrepect a Black woman peer on national television as his team lost and have sports media run cover for him. #Misogynoir is Dawn getting critiqued for defending herself and her team from said abuse, all while knowing she could never behave the same way.

Yesterday, our visiting scholar @moyazb.bsky.social shared her phenomenal new short film 'You Just Watch & See' about the inspiring life of her cousin Dollie. Look out for 'You Just Watch & See' on this year's film festival circuit! @asc.upenn.edu

A group of people is seated in the audience in ASC room 500, with long wooden tables arranged in rows. Each person has a plate of food and a bottle of water or soda in front of them. The room has white walls, large windows on the right side, and a projector mounted on the ceiling at the front. Professor Sarah Jackson is holding a microphone and asking a question while audience members look at her.

Humans made up everything in society, each & every bit. That means we can unmake it too. We don't have to move as if having the most 1s and 0s in your bank account qualifies you to make impulsive uninformed decisions that effect the whole world. Capitalism is a choice and we can choose again.

“She was evicted from her home of 23 years in February and died in May, while homeless, just days short of her 71st birthday." There was a time in this country when evictions were so rare they sparked riots. Now people are forced out of their homes every single day, and we barely bat an eye.
