Out There Screaming: just arrived, this fabulous anthology of Black Horror Writing from Picador Books , edited by the amazing Jordan Peele, including authors like Nnedi Okorafor and N K Jemesin..

We have a handful signed by many of the authors, with these delightfully creepy spredges & endpapers.

LOVE, LOSS, TRAUMA, betrayal, renewal, vulnerability, resistance, and the math of it all—a poet and essayist weaves a shimmering tapestry of how we stay alive in a world trying so hard to crush us. A MINUS

Really thoughtful long read on Octavia Butler from Andrea Long Chu in The Vulture. Chu argues against reductionist and one-dimensional readings of Butler's works & looks at power relations in her stories over the course of her entire career.

Octavia Butler’s middle school in Pasadena has now been named after her. First school in the country to use her name (hopefully not the last!). #ScienceFiction #Blackwriting

Think I'll be sticking around since people seem to be trickling in, so maybe it's time for a more thorough #introduction. I'm a scholar of #earlyamericanliterature specializing on early #Blackwriting, #romance, and literary representations of #slavery. I currently also work on a public-facing #BlackHistory project on London, Ontario. Still looking to connect with folks, so say hi!
