Our Mission:
To unite scholars across disciplines who are working to highlight the intellectual contributions of Black women and non-men throughout the African diaspora. This space functions as a working space for scholars of various levels to receive feedback on their projects that will enrich the Black feminist and womanist traditions. All participants, presenters and otherwise, are expected to uphold themselves in a collegial manner that allows the space to be a productive environment for all. While this space is not closed to Black women and non-men, it is expected that scholars focus on these groups in their submitted works-in-progress.
Our Objectives:
1. Cultivating a network of scholars invested in the multiplicitous traditions of Black womanist and feminist theory across disciplines and institutions.
2. Assisting participants in transforming research projects into publishable materials--book chapters, articles, etc.
3. Providing a collegial space for rigorous feedback among peers through annual meetings and conference panels.
