Objectification and adultification of black girls in the USA
Gendered racism has a negative impact on Black girls in the USA and can contribute to their adultification and the objectification of their bodies, leading to poorer health outcomes. This study sought to analyse the historical and sociocultural factors that shape this sexual objectification and adultification. Intersectionality theory and objectification theory were used to frame our examination of how gendered racial stereotypes impact Black gir…
Anti‐Bodies, Anti‐Body
This essay introduces the special section Anti‐bodies, Anti‐body: A Black Feminist Call and Response , a collaborative Black feminist intervention that emerges from an interdisciplinary dialogue grounded in anthropological critique. Building on anthropologist Dána‐Ain Davis's concept of “Black anti‐bodies”—bodies caught in the paradox of susceptibility and immunity—we explore how Black and “Othered” bodies are positioned at the intersection of vu…
Black Anti-Bodies Versus Resistive Antibody in a Feminist Infrastructure of Care
This essay distinguishes between Black anti-bodies and resistive antibodies to examine the grassroots care labor of Black Jamaican women living with HIV. Drawing on a brief ethnographic vignette from fieldwork in Kingston, it explores how women navigate and contest state violence, reproductive injustice, and biomedical neglect through community-based networks of care that are resistive antibodies-protective entities that offer adaptive forms of r…
Divine Intimacies
This article foregrounds the complex self-making of Black Jamaican women living with HIV to explore the political and religious significance of their queer intimacies. Jolly argues that women's embodied pleasures and spiritual consciousness present a form of divine intimacy that exposes the complex relationship between queer studies, Black religious thought, and the sexual desires of Black queers in general, and Black queer women in particular. F…

At the Crossroads
This article illustrates how feminist analyses and insights have offered anthropology expansive ethnographic possibilities as it charts possible futures for doing more ethically and politically invested work that emerges from the lives and experiences of Black women and women in the Global South. It takes on the problematics of situatedness, difference, reflexivity, and writing about women's lives in the (feminist) anthropology of HIV/AIDS to cha…
Black feminist geographies of HIV/Aids in Jamaica
Dissertation: Jolly, Jallicia. 2020. Ill Erotics: The Cultural Geography of Sexuality, Illness, & Self-Making Among HIV-Positive Young Women in Jamaica. PhD Diss. University of Michigan, Ann Arbor
From "at Risk" to Interdependent
In post-colonial Jamaica, the iconic portrayal of “sun, sex, and smiles” clashes with the disproportionate rates of HIV among working-class black Jamaican women. Even though the Caribbean has both the highest incidence rates of reported AIDS cases and HIV prevalence rates in the Americas, second only to Africa, the region remains largely ignored in scholarship on the HIV/AIDS pandemic and black political movement. This essay draws from feminist e…
On Forbidden Wombs and Transnational Reproductive Justice
This essay proposes transnational reproductive justice as a useful approach to the liberation of multiply marginalized women. I center the systematic terror and denigration of women of color by various institutions, practices, and policies in order to demonstrate why we need a reproductive justice approach to address dynamic state-sanctioned violence. After explaining the content and significance of a reproductive justice framework, I explain the…
