The Emergence of the “Ain’t I a Woman?” Speech Journey: White Transcriptions of Black Voices
This article analyzes the original 19th-century published transcripts of Sojourner Truth’s “Ain’t I a Woman?,” one of the most well-known addresses in U.S. history. We provide a first-time analysis of two versions of the speech created by white writers and activists. Using discourse analysis and technology studies for examining the emergence of this “speech journey,” we reveal how both versions were based on different covert white journalistic an…
“Hello Ableds, Is It Vacation Yet?”: Disability, Domesticity, and Digital Alchemy During Covid-19
When the novel coronavirus began spreading globally in 2020, people within disability communities marked the term ‘social distancing’ as oxymoronic and ignorant of those for whom isolation, quarantine, and limited public life is common. For many, COVID-19 did not signal a complete upheaval of their domestic lives; instead, it created opportunities to increase disability visibility in digital spaces and to lament the ways the pandemic further eras…
African Technocultural Feminist Theory (ATFT)
Multiple layers of subjugation, including imperial, colonial, economic, and political, frequently inform considerations and rhetoric about the African continent and its varying populations. Unequal global relations which result in negative/one-sided as well as under representation of Africa and African people, particularly women, in western media characterize these rhetorical subjugations and create erroneous generalizations about the entire cont…

We Bring Home the Roots: Black Women Travel Influencers, Digital Culture Bearing, and African Internationalism in Instagram
This study examines how travel influencers Jessica Nabongo and Oneika Raymond use Instagram in a process I call 'digital culture bearing,' employing the platform to nurture wisdom about Africa. They combine images, captions, hashtags, and geotags to share information about nations within the African continent with principally Black populations. Employing critical technocultural discourse analysis (CTDA) to interpret how race, gender, global trave…
Catchmeinashithole: Black Travel Influencers and the Contestation of Racialized Place Myths
The travel industry and mainstream media often produce neocolonial narratives about global cultures that center the nations and people affiliated with them as exotic and even dangerous others. Today’s Black social media influencers and consumers are actively asserting Black travel perspectives in the digital realm, creating arresting imagery that flout neocolonialist discourse and challenges racial assumptions about certain spaces and people. Thi…
Gateway to Africa: The History of Television Service in Late Colonial Nigeria
The constitutional changes that took place in Nigeria in the decade before independence granted significant authority to the colonial state's three regions. The 1954 constitution gave both the federal and regional governments the authority to legislate on broadcasting issues. In 1959, Western Region leader, Chief Obafemi Awolowo, established the Western Nigeria Television Service (WNTV), a service considered the ‘Gateway to Africa’. This article …
