Black Women and the Pleasures of Intellectual Work
What does it mean for a Black woman to choose to do intellectual work? In the twenty‐first century, Black women, either by virtue of their academic careers or their vocations outside of institutional settings, pursue intellectual work for its own sake as well as in pursuit of collective goals. That is to say, they can acknowledge intellectual work as a source of personal fulfillment, indeed a source of joy in ways that earlier generations of Blac…

On Freedom and the Will to Adorn
The Harlem Renaissance
Images of Black Modernism
Raccoon Coats,” an often-reproduced photograph by James Van Der Zee, adorns the cover of Images of Black Modernism. A black man and woman, wearing matching fur coats, are posed against a shiny convertible; they seem to emblematize the glamor and optimism of the Harlem Renaissance. But the photograph is dated 1932, after the depression decimated the “Mecca of the New Negro.” Images of Black Modernism argues that our desire to romanticize the Harle…
On Dolls, Presidents, and Little Black Girls
The essay is a reflection on the inauguration of Barack Obama and on teaching Toni Morrison’s novel The Bluest Eye the next day. Reading the story of Pecola Breedlove put in sharp relief the fact that on January 20, 2009, the Obama daughters were the most adored children in the world. The juxtaposition occasioned thoughts on historical change and on the role of feminist critique in analyzing and producing it. Pecola is despised and defeated; she …
Women of the Harlem Renaissance
Joanna Marshall, the protagonist of Jessie Fauset's There Is Confusion (1924), one of the first novels of the Harlem Renaissance, insists “that if there's anything that will break down prejudice it will be equality or perhaps even superiority on the part of colored people in the arts.” Fauset shared this belief with other leaders of the New Negro movement, Alain Locke, Charles Johnson, and James Weldon Johnson. The time seemed ripe. During the 19…
The Cambridge Companion to Toni Morrison
Nobel laureate Toni Morrison is one of the most widely studied of contemporary American authors. Her novels, particularly Beloved, have had a dramatic impact on the American canon and attracted considerable critical commentary. This 2007 Companion introduces and examines her oeuvre as a whole, the first evaluation to include not only her famous novels, but also her other literary works (short story, drama, musical, and opera), her social and lite…

Zora Neale Hurston's Their Eyes Were Watching God
The rediscovery of Zora Neale Hurston's Their Eyes Were Watching God, first published in 1937 but subsequently out of print for decades, marks one of the most dramatic chapters in African-American literature and Women's Studies. Its popularity owes much to the lyricism of the prose, the pitch-perfect rendition of black vernacular English, and the memorable characters - most notably, Janie Crawford. Collecting the most widely cited and influential…
Histories and Heresies
On Waiting to Exhale
Extending the Line
Lyrical, seductive, and justly celebrated, the prologue of Gloria Naylor's 1988 novel, Mama Day invites the reader into a fictive world that in its location, history, customs, and beliefs is a world elsewhere. Belonging to the United States, but part of no state, Willow Springs can be located only on the map that the front matter of the book helpfully provides. A place that has been black owned and self sufficient since 1823 when an enslaved conj…
