A Note on the Presidential Address
A Note on the Presidential Address Sharon P. Holland (bio) In the first iteration of the American Studies Association, the presidential address was a genre yet to be created. After twenty presidents, the ASA elected its first woman, Lois W. Banner (1986–87). The first version of that thing called the "presidential address" came about when Alice Kessler-Harris published a version of her address ("Cultural Locations") as an essay in the September 1…
Black (W)holes
Ever since the publication of Evelynn Hammonds's rejoinder to the evolving discussion of (white) queer studies (differences 1994), we have struggled to think about black female sexuality and how it matters to our understandings of prevailing tropes of feminism.

(1936) Civil Rights Warren's narrative of black letters is a rich and thoroughgoing—albeit, implicit—critique of our post-racial moment. But his point here is not to convince us that we are past something, or even that, to riff off of our Mr. Faulkner, WAS is. Instead, I locate Warren's critique of o…
"The "Beached Whale
This article briefly traces the fraught relationship between feminism, sexuality studies, and black feminism. I argue that as sexuality studies, through "Thinking Sex" in particular, began to follow feminism's lead-yoking blackness to a history separate from that of feminism's historical grounding-we have moved further from an exploration of blackness's centrality in queer studies discourse about the body and its erotic desires
