  • Joyride

    Open AccessJohn Brooks, John E Brooks et al.ARTICLEliquid blackness2025Referencias: 11

    How might we think with joy? What might focusing on joy in an anti-black world teach us about collective action and relational feeling? What if relational, antiracist critiques were framed by mutual investments in joy's flourishing? In this introduction, coeditors John Brooks and Jonathan Leal probe these questions through a dialectical exploration of radical ecstasy that refutes the rigidities of traditional methods, forms, and categories, anima…

  • Edgework and Excess

    Open AccessJohn Brooks, John R BrooksARTICLEAmerican Quarterly2024Citada por: 1

    This essay shows how Jimi Hendrix's experiments with fuzz anticipated notyet-audible sonic worlds and evinced Blackness in sound. Focusing on the American guitarist's debut album, Are You Experienced (1967), I describe fuzz as an entryway into the politico-theatrical scene of Black sociality. My analysis pivots on two axes: edgework and excess. I argue that Hendrix's pursuit of new sonic territory, as well as the mathematical-electrical engineeri…

    Nightjars, and: Met, and: Lakehouse II John Brooks (bio) NIGHTJARS Doomed to wander, nightjarshave a habit of resting and roosting on roads. Gatheringstrength to sing, they might also be rewriting melodies. As a boy,in the dark, I made myself as flat as I could be underthe covers.

  • The Racial Unfamiliar

    John BrooksBOOKThe Racial Unfamiliar2022

    John Brooks examines a range of abstractionist, experimental, and genre-defying works by Black writers and artists that challenge how audiences perceive and imagine race. He argues that literature and visual art that exceed the confines of familiar conceptions of Black identity can upend received ideas about race and difference.

  • Board on the job

    Open AccessJohn Brooks, John E Brooks et al.ARTICLEJournal of Public Policy2019Citada por: 3Referencias: 41

    Although elected officials have the final say over pensions, boards of trustees also influence plan governance. Not a great deal is known about boards or how they shape policies. Boards are composed of politically and nonpolitically appointed members, as well as active and retired employees. Plan active-employee size turns out to be the best predictor of membership, suggesting that employee voice expands as plans cover more workers. Using both fi…

  • The Heretical History of Robin Coste Lewis's The Voyage of the Sable Venus

    John BrooksARTICLEAfrican American Review2019

    The Heretical History of Robin Coste Lewis's The Voyage of the Sable Venus John Brooks (bio) Midway through the seventy-nine-page title poem of Robin Coste Lewis's debut collection of poetry, The Voyage of the Sable Venus, which won the 2015 National Book Award for Poetry, readers encounter a series of couplets describing a slavery-era image. Even if they have never seen it, readers might easily envision this artwork: Nude Black Womanin an Oyster…

  • Mediating the Electoral Connection

    John Henderson, John Brooks et al.ARTICLEThe Journal of Politics2016Citada por: 11Referencias: 28

    We develop and assess an information account of representation. Accordingly, politicians face uncertainty about voter opinion and use previous vote margins to gauge future electoral outcomes. Losses in vote support elicit ideological moderation given new information about electorates. To test this account, we use rain around Election Day as a natural experiment in voting in the US House races from 1956 to 2008. We find that each additional inch o…

  • Preparing for Armageddon

    John Brooks, John R BrooksARTICLEJournal of Strategic Studies2015Referencias: 3

    The article examines for the pre-First World War period: the developments in gunnery techniques; the gunnery practices and especially the firing ranges; and the tactical games and exercises conducted in the Grand Fleet, with their emphasis on the perceived threats from mines dropped from destroyers and from torpedoes from submarines. It concludes, contrary to Professor Sumida’s currently accepted interpretation, that at no time was ‘the developme…

  • Lynn McDonald, Florence Nightingale at First Hand

    John BrooksARTICLESocial History of Medicine2011

    In the opening sentence of Florence Nightingale at First Hand Lynn McDonald pre-empts her readers by asking, ‘Why another book on Florence Nightingale?’ (p. xi). The answer she provides is that the book differs from other books on Nightingale by being neither adulatory nor cynical. Instead it offers Nightingale's own writings, from which the readers may make their own decisions. The book is divided into chapters each of which deals with a differe…

  • Dreadnought

    Open AccessJohn Brooks, John R BrooksARTICLEWar in History2007

    In a departure from Britain's previous reactive response to innovation in naval technology, Fisher's dreadnought policy introduced radically new capital ship designs, despite the technical risks inherent in their all-big-gun armament and turbine propulsion. Yet, early in 1905, Britain's strategic position was strong and improving further: only America was, rather slowly, working towards a small all-big-gun battleship, while Germany would not cons…
