About me

Gender Female
Occupation Graduate Student
Location Washington, DC, United States
Introduction I am a blackwoman graduate student in Washington, DC. I think too much so must write down my ponderings, since my dearest friends are tired of hearing me talk. I have a love affair with black feminist theory and matters of representation and signifyin' in U.S. culture. I regularly anger some white folks (for research purposes, of course) by insisting on talking about race and other taboo topics in front of them. Shit, I have to deal with the race question, so I guess you do too.
Interests Race and gender, critical theories, postcolonial theories, child psychology, popular culture, black comedy.
Favorite Movies I live on a regular diet of Paul Mooney and the Boondocks.
Favorite Music Erykah Badu, Alicia Keys, Anthony Hamilton, Common, Chrisette Michelle, Angie Stone
