Abstract:This article places the 1982 anthology But Some of Us Are Brave: Black Women's Studies within the Black feminist tradition of recovering "lost" literary works by Black women. I introduce the concept of the "archaeological impulse," as a way of theorizing the affective charge that animates this project to search out, re-discover, and share Black women's writing. I then situate the bibliographies, bibliographic essays, and syllabi published in the anthology within this larger project of Black feminism during the 1970s and 1980s and reveal how But Some of Us Are Brave marks the shift of Black feminist criticism from recovery work to original scholarly research and the subsequent flowering of Black feminist literary criticism in the 1980s.

Abstract:In this essay I explore the sonic memories of trauma and their relationship to how audibility and inaudibility operate within the justice system in the United States of America. I recount the crucial role that sound plays in shaping sensory knowledge of sexual assault. The sound worlds that emerge, while individualized, are emblematic of traumatic sound productions and their consequences. Pivoting around this experience, I theorize broadly about how sound is operationalized in the justice system and in healing processes, through the intersections of sonic memory, hearing, and authority. In the justice system, the abstract categories of truth and subjectivity are solidified through a series of aural technologies: telling, hearing, aural witnessing, and reconjuring. The machinery of justice insists on re-sounding as an important part of verifying "truth" even while sound becomes a medium through which the wound is transmitted. Through these aural technologies that repeat, replay, and interrogate, the sonic memory becomes an echo, separated from its articulation. In the resounding there is a complex duality for survivors: the desire to be believed, verified as a sound authority, but also the retraumatizing effect of the echo that is conjured. Proceeding from Gloria Anzaldúa's intellectual positioning on wounding and healing, I reflect upon the potential of sonic reconjuring to act as a transformational posture of re-voicing trauma.

Abstract:This forum began as an "Author Meets Critics" at the 2019 NWSA Conference in San Francisco, where seven feminist scholar-activists from diverse locations, disciplines, and trajectories came together to discuss their unique co-journeys while exploring the daring theoretical interventions in Hungry Translations: Relearning the World Through Radical Vulnerability (HT). HT is an insightful and inspiring text authored by Richa Nagar through journeys with saathis or companions who form the Sangtin Kisan Mazdoor Sangathan in Uttar Pradesh and Parakh Theatre in Mumbai, and with students at the University of Minnesota. Here, we share this vibrant conversation as an invitation to our readers to immerse themselves in the collective journeys and performances that strive for ethical re/telling, radical vulnerability, situated solidarity, intellectual humility, and epistemic justice at the shifting intersections of intimate and global politics.

Abstract:Currently living and working in Brooklyn, the artist María Berrío grew up in Colombia learning from a community of women. Her art reflects the mothers, daughters, and friends of that sisterhood. Made from torn pieces of handmade paper on canvas, each piece gives voice to the women and children of all ages and races. Using dreams, current socio-political events, and mythological subjects, Berrío's work challenges how we view women in society. Much of Berrío's art centers on the themes of resilience, immigration, and climate awareness. Elegantly intertwining these three concepts, Berrío delves into the complexities of womanhood through showing the struggles, triumphs, and challenges that women face in private spaces and in nature. The artist tells stories of women that resonate across cultures, and her passions are current even as they, no doubt, will be shared by future generations.
