Dr. Felice Blake
<p>On this episode of Efemeral, we discuss themes in Black literature with Dr. Felice Blake, Black studies and gender & sexuality professor at the University of California, Santa Barbara. Blake discusses the tropes of Black intimacy, incarceration, and intra-racial degradation as explored in her published novels, Black Love, Black Hate: Intimate Antagonisms in African American Literature and Antiracism Inc.: Why the Way We Talk about Racial Justice Matters. Blake details her own experience as a scholar during the L.A. Riots and unravels the institutional systems from which Black Lives Matter came about, connecting abolitionist movements to themes of segregation amplified by the prison industrial system.</p><p>Show Notes:</p><p>All music in this episode written by Molly McAnany.</p><p>Special thanks to the English & Black Studies Departments at the University of California, Santa Barbara</p><p>Sources Referenced:</p><p><a href="https://ohiostatepress.org/books/titles/9780814213865.html">Black Love Black Hate:</a><a href="https://ohiostatepress.org/books/titles/9780814213865.html"> </a><a href="https://ohiostatepress.org/books/titles/9780814213865.html">Intimate Antagonisms in African American Literature</a></p><p><a href="https://punctumbooks.com/titles/antiracism-inc-why-the-way-we-talk-about-racial-justice-matters/">Antiracism Inc.: Why the Way We Talk about Racial Justice Matters</a></p><p><a href="https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/separate_but_equal#:~:text=Implementation%20of%20the%20%E2%80%9Cseparate%20but,for%20African%20Americans%20and%20whites.">Separate but Equal Doctrine</a></p><p><a href="https://daily.jstor.org/kimberle-crenshaws-intersectional-feminism/">Intersectionality Theory</a></p>
