Caliban, His Woman, and the Gendered (In)humanism of Wild Seed
In this article, I begin with a broad question for anthropological philosophy-what is the human?-to turn toward a related question for social analysis: How did the concept of gender become a constitutive part of being human? Octavia Butler's speculative historical novel, Wild Seed (1980), troubles gender's conceptual metaphysics, serving as a precursor for the exploration of an alternative humanism found in Sylvia Wynter's "Beyond Miranda's Meani…
Visible or Invisible? Black Girls’ Experiences in a Mathematics Classroom
Building on extant literature, the present qualitative study explored Black adolescent girls’ racial and gendered experiences as mathematics learners. Data collection included focus groups with Black adolescent girls (N = 30, Mage = 12.64 years). Several themes concerning their racialized and gendered schooling experiences emerged, which centered on language use, competition with boys, and working hard to prove themselves. To cope with the racial…
Black Age
In the aftermath of Trayvon Martin’s murder in 2012, an observation saliently circulated in public: Black children are not seen as children. Yet when and how is black embodiment of any age accurately seen? Black Age: Oceanic Lifespans and the Time of Black Life argues that age for people of the black diaspora has been historically constituted as “untimely.” Over various phases of the transatlantic slave trade, the black body had been separated fr…
Impact of In-School Suspension on Black Girls’ Math Course-Taking in High School
Black girls are more likely to receive in-school suspension (ISS) in comparison to their non-Black peers. However, research on the effect of in-school suspension on students’ academic achievement, specifically math achievement of Black girls, is still very limited. Mathematics is an important foundational component of science, technology, and engineering fields, which are domains in which Black girls are underrepresented. Using the nationally rep…
Structured Savings and Asset Ownership
Rotating Savings and Credit Associations (ROSCAs) are commonly practiced in developing countries across the globe. The practice is also common among immigrants in developed economies. This study uses survey data collected from African immigrants in the United States to examine whether saving in ROSCAs is associated with asset ownership among the participants. The results found that after receiving the ROSCAs savings, asset ownership among partici…
School Discipline, Race–Gender and STEM Readiness
Any Other Age
This article argues that the vampire is the metaphorical vehicle for literary representations of “oceanic lifespans,” or lived temporalities that derive from liberal humanist dispossession. Octavia Butler’s Fledgling (2005) and Jewelle Gomez’s The Gilda Stories (1991) are vampire novels that interrupt conventional narratives about temporality—which include historical time, chronological time, and national time—to explore oceanic narratives, such …
Informal Economy
People create employment opportunities for themselves that put them on the margins of the regular paid economy in a variety of cultural settings. Though often viewed as a stop‐gap strategy or last resort for unemployable people, the informal economy can also involve people who have a place in the regular economy and are searching for means to supplement their otherwise insufficient salaries.

Troubling the Family
This book argues that the emergence of multiracialism during the 1990s was determined by underlying and unacknowledged gender norms. Opening with a germinal moment for multiracialism—the seemingly massive and instantaneous popular appearance of Tiger Woods in 1997—this book examines how the shifting status of racial hero for both black and multiracial communities makes sense only by means of an account of masculinity. The book looks across histor…
Toward Black and Multiracial “Kinship” After 1997, or How a Race Man Became “Cablinasian”
of twentieth century. This is not a problem of color line, but neither is it a problem after color line. Rather, what 1997 indexes is way race itself is operatively two things: stable and hierarchical on one hand, contingent, dispersive, and idiosyncratic on other. During twentieth century, the color line referred to cultural and legal segregation between black and white racial communities, attenuated by quasi-biological logic of distinct bloodli…
