  • Summary

  • This is John Drabinski and you’re listening to The Black Studies podcast, a Mellon grant sponsored series of conversations examining the history of the field. Our conversations engage with a wide range of activists and scholars - senior figures in the field, late doctoral students, and everyone in between, culture workers, and political organizers - in order to explore the cultural and political meaning of Black Studies as an area of inquiry and its critical methods.


    Today’s conversation is with Sarah Jane Cervenak, who teaches in the Departments of Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies and African American and African Diaspora Studies at University of North Carolina, Greensboro. In addition to a number of scholarly articles, she is the author of Wandering: Philosophical Performances of Racial and Sexual Freedom (2014) and Black Gathering: Art, Ecology, Ungiven Life (2022). With J. Kameron Carter, she is co-editor of the series Black Outdoors on Duke University Press. Across this conversation, we discuss the relation between performance studies and Black Studies, the meaning of Black study in the classroom, and the place of expressive culture in the field.
