Dearest VèVè
I wrote this letter to Dr. VèVè Amasasa Clark-associate professor of African American Studies at the University of California, Berkeley, and co-founding member of the Haitian Studies Association (HSA)-to present as part of the plenary session of the thirty-sixth annual HSA conference, "Nou Tout Se Moun: Centering Gender, Feminist Practice and Embodiment in the work of Decolonizing Haitian Studies." I was very grateful for the generous invitation …
Ezili’s Mirrors
Read this book like a song.No never, ever like a book of theory.Creating theory, Barbara Christian told me years ago, means "fixing a new constellation of ideas for a time at least." 1 She refused to fix constellations & so do I.This is a book in motion-in singing, falling, faltering, weeping, hip-circling, moaning, yellow-boning, following, insisting.The motion makes me dizzy sometimes, trying to sing & move at the same time.It may make you dizz…
Beyoncé in Formation
Making headlines when it was launched in 2015, Omise'eke Tinsley's undergraduate course "Beyoncé Feminism, Rihanna Womanism" has inspired students from all walks of life. In Beyoncé in Formation, Tinsley now takes her rich observations beyond the classroom, using the blockbuster album and video Lemonade as a soundtrack for vital new-millennium narratives. Woven with candid observations about her life as a feminist scholar of African studies and a…

Go Beyond Our Natural Selves”
This is a collection of the prison letters of CeCe McDonald, edited and with an introduction by Omise'eke Natasha Tinsley
From Black Transgender Studies to Colin Dayan
This reflection argues that the oeuvre of Colin Dayan provides critical tools for the elaboration of black transgender studies. Specifically, the authors analyze the trial and imprisonment of black transgender activist CeCe MacDonald using Dayan's work as a methodological model. The essay engages Dayan's work on race and gender in Haiti, History, and the Gods to elaborate a critique of how racism and transphobia become intimately intertwined in t…
"A Conversation "Overflowing with Memory
This conversation between Jafari S. Allen and Omise'eke Natasha Tinsley (with Natalie Bennett, Rosamond S. King, Rinaldo Walcott, and Michelle Wright) follows a lively debate during the Black/Queer/Diaspora Work(ing) Group symposium in 2009. This debate centered on the promise and pitfalls associated with pushing beyond disciplinary frameworks and methodological conventions toward, for example, narrative theorizing and creative responses as a leg…
"Extract from "Water, Shoulders, Into the Black Pacific
In the last twenty years, the geographic and conceptual space that Paul Gilroy dubbed the Black Atlantic-a network of transnational, transoceanic histories linking people of African descent in West Africa, the Caribbean, North America, and Europe-has emerged as the subject of deepening scholarly and creative reflections in England and the United States. But the Atlantic is by no means the only or most important body of water whose currents have m…

Black Atlantic, Queer Atlantic
What would it mean for both queer and African diaspora studies to theorize that the black Atlantic has always been a queer Atlantic? What new geography-or better, oceanography-of sexual, gendered, transnational, and racial identities might emerge through a queer reading of transoceanic dislocations between Africa and the Caribbean? This article examines canonical African diaspora and queer theoretical texts in dialogue with recently published cre…
