In Remembrance of Bell Hooks
In Remembrance of Bell Hooks:On Being Human Darnell L. Moore (bio) I met bell hooks in October 2014. At the time, I still held an image of her as an iconic writer rather than an enfleshed Black woman full of desire and deep feeling. She was, after all, one of the most consequential feminist writers and intellectuals of our time. And like most well-known, widely-read, and celebrated figures, I connected to the life-changing words that she penned i…

Black Radical Love
At the root of Black resistance—the collective struggle through which we might imagine and build a world more just, more free, more equitable, more magical—is love. Nothing but an unwavering love f

A Community’s Response to the Problem of Invisibility
The 300 people that gathered in Newark, New Jersey, on a fall day in 2011 were not the typical academic crowd. That day, LGBTQ activists and high school students, street workers and church leaders, politicians and university students, professors, administrators and university staff sat rapt, watching rare and stunning images of “New Millennium Butches,” resplendent in tailored suits of black, pink or purple, flashing before them on a thirty-foot …
Reciprocal Solidarity
In this article, two queer men, one Black American and the other Palestinian, theorize "reciprocal solidarity" as a model of solidarity that thrives on love, friendship, storytelling, reciprocity, shared experiences, struggles, and queer kinship
Structurelessness, Structure, and Queer Movements
Queer political work might appear to be grounded in a theory of struc- turelessness, at least as it relates to the making of an imagined queer com- munity/movement organized around the need to alleviate the unbending boundaries and centers of sexual identification. Yet it is also true that queer communities can be limited by the very ways they are structured by and constituted through race, class, ability, and other forms of social categori- zati…
Contested Alliances
This brief article examines the ways in which the ideological and theological understandings of some Black churches and the conservative Right in the USA cohere to form a heteronormative agenda which is used to police queer sexual expressions and familial formations. The article begins to explicate a disruptive political and theological frame that transgresses heteronormativity
Constructing Gender
The purpose of this essay is to assess how the preached word — at least the ways in which certain Christian teachings, doctrines, theologies, and moral ideologies are often framed for us through the preaching moment — has much to do with the ways in which gender roles are imagined, constructed, and lived out and even the ways in which gender-based violence and violation can be reinforced. By engaging the teachings of several prominent Pentecostal…
Crossings and Departures
This interview signals the coming together of two prominent and influential Black artist intellectuals who claim Newark as a site of community—the city that both identify (one earlier than the other)—as a space where they serve and commune with Newakers. During the interview, it had become clear Baraka's and Clarke's few “departures” of perspective had become, at various points in their lives and within some articulations of their artistry, “cros…
Guilty of Sin
Same gender loving (SGL) brothers and sisters continue to experience marginalization because of the exclusion perpetuated by African-American denominational churches. Many churches continue to proclaim SGL sexual identities and partnerships as sinful. The author argues that many churches base this claim on androcentric-oriented conceptualizations of sin and human sexuality. As a result, the paper will explore Womanist/Feminist reconstructions of …
