SUMMARY:Inhabitants of the Deep: The Blueness of Blackness
DESCRIPTION:UCLA Department of English presents a talk by Dr. Jonathan Howard\, “Inhabitants of the Deep: The Blueness of Blackness.” \nRegister here to attend. A light reception will follow the event. \nThe talk will be followed by a Q & A moderated by Uri McMillan\, Professor of English at UCLA. \nDr. Jonathan Howard is an Assistant Professor of Black Studies and English at Yale University. His research and teaching broadly interrogate western ideas about race and nature while also exploring black expressive culture as an alternative site of ecological thought and practice. His first book\, Inhabitants of the Deep: The Blueness of Blackness\, undertakes a black ecocritical study of the “deep” as the diffuse subtext of African American literature. It argues that blackness dawns in Middle Passage as an ongoing inhabitation of the deep\, which is most fully apprehended not as social death but ecological life. \nQuestions about the event?\nEmail: englishevents@ucla.edu
