Janice J. Anderson is a PhD candidate whose doctoral research, “Being Otherwise: Black Women’s Literary Interventions into Radical Being, Knowledge and Power,” considers self-fashioning and world-making in Black women’s intellectual traditions and literatures in the Americas. Her areas of research interest include the Black Radical Tradition, Black feminism/womanism, Black aesthetics and Black literatures. “I am grateful to the Tubman Institute for the continued support to examine enslavement in the context of the Americas. Here I can further develop a scholarly practice that adheres to geographer Katherine McKittrick’s admonishments to shift “our analytic frame away from the lone site of the suffering [Black] body” and “toward co-relational texts, practices, and narratives that emphasize black life” (McKittrick 2014). My gratitude continues for acceptance and space in this collegial environment of innovative scholars.
