Treating Audre Lorde and June Jordan as primary theorists of mothering and survival, and Alexis De Veaux and Barbara Smith as key literary historical figures in the queer manifestation of Black feminist modes of literary production, this dissertation uses previously unavailable archival material, and queer of color critique and critical Black diasporic theoretical approaches to create an intergenerative reading practice. An intergenerative reading practice interrupts the social reproduction of meaning and value across time, and places untimely literary moments and products in poetic relationship to each other in order to reveal the possibility of another meaning of life. Ultimately this dissertation functions as a sample narrative towards the alternate meaning of life that the poetic breaks of Black feminist literary production in the queer spaces of counter-cultural markets, classrooms, autonomous publishing collectives make possible, concluding that mothering is indeed a reflexive and queer way of reading the present in the service of a substantively different future in which our outlawed love survives. iv Dedication To my mother Pauline Ann McKenzie-Day always, always. v Contents Abstract..........................................................................................................................................iv Acknowledgements ................................................................................................................... viii Prologue: To Those of Us Who Live at the Shoreline ........................................................ 1 Introduction: Never Meant to Survive............................................................................... 24 Chapter 1: Survival-An Intervention into Meaning……………………………………………………92 Chapter 2: The Ante-Essence of Black Mothering: Authority and Queer Danger ........... 184 “To Mother Ourselves”....................................................................................................... 187 Black Mothers are Dangerous.......................................................................................... 193 Chapter 3: Teaching Us Questions: The Black Mutha…and the Transformation of Discipline .................................................................................................................................... 262 Black Mother as Bad Teacher........................................................................................... 262 The Problem of Language in a Reproductive State........................................................ 262 The Forced Poetics of Intergenerational Address........................................................ 266 The Urgency of Intergenerational Address in the Queer Time and Space of the Classroom .......................................................................................................................... 272 Chapter 4: “Difficult Miracle”: Audre Lorde, June Jordan and the Forced Poetics of Publishing in the Black Arts Market....................................................................................... 323 June Jordan and the Difficult Miracle of Poetry in Time ............................................. 328 Poetry is (A Hungering For).............................................................................................. 329 Chapter 5: Publishing and Survival: The Meanings of Production .................................... 422 The (Im)Possibility of Poetry ........................................................................................... 423 Kizzy: Rooted at the Shoreline......................................................................................... 446 Our Bodies/Our Limits .................................................................................................... 454 To Survive: Barbara Smith and Alexis De Veaux ........................................................ 466 vi Needed to Last: Kitchen Table Sacrifices ...................................................................... 466 Black Feminist Means: Of Production........................................................................... 471 Forgotten Flamboyance: Alexis De Veaux …..………………………………….…484 Gaptooth Continuity………………………………………………………………....491 Survival Unbound: Blue Heat…………………………………………………….….493 Change Itself Changes………………………………………………..………………499 References…………….………………………………………………………………………..501 Biography………….…………………………………………………………………………...510 vii Acknowledgements I am grateful to you, all of my ancestors, for guiding my hands and my direction.

  • Modernist Aesthetic in the Case of Lord Alfred Douglas and Marie Carmichael Stopes
    33 The Poetry That Dare Not Speak Its Name: Modernist Aesthetic in the Case of Lord Alfred Douglas and Marie Carmichael Stopes Christina Hauck Kansas State University An improbable friendship sprang up in 1938 when one “Mrs Carmi- chael,” representing herself as a young mother, wrote Lord Alfred Douglas to show him a sonnet and ask his advice about publishing it. Little realizing that he was entering into correspondence with the notorious birth control advocate, Marie Carmichael Stopes, the staunchly Catholic Douglas wrote back kindly, calling Mrs. Carmichael a “pleasant poet” and lamenting his own difficulties publishing (Hall 282). If Douglas didn’t understand quite whom he was writing to, Stopes herself, rabidly homophobic and anti-Catholic, must have: Douglas’s claim to fame lay less in his poetry, whose quality critics debated fiercely when they bothered to read it at all, but in his having been a central actor in the events leading up to Oscar Wilde’s trial and imprisonment.1 By the time the correspondence had be- gun, Douglas had long converted to Catholicism and was admitting only to limited homosexual activities over a limited period, with Wilde or any- one else; Stopes apparently believed him.2 After several months, Stopes revealed her “true” identity. Douglas, understandably, was nervous. In a letter to George Bernard Shaw, he writes: I am fated to make friends with my enemies. For the last three months I have been corresponding with a lady who wrote about my poetry and poetry in general. She expressed great admira- tion for me as a poet.

Piotr Oczko Przeł. Krystyna Mazur http://rcin.org.pl Piotr OCZKO Why I Do Not Want to Write about Old-Polish Male-bedders: A Contribution to the ‘Archeology” of Gay Studies in Poland Honi soit qui mal y pense Feminist researchers tracing the signs of creativity and activity ofwomen in past centuries often metaphorically refer to their predecessors as mothers, grandmothers, and great­ grandmothers. Wanting to write about homosexuality in historical Poland, 1 encounter from the start a terminological dilemma. What would 1 call the potential heroes of my article, those “Old Polish gays,” my “ancestors"? After all, they cannot be fathers to me for the very use of this term would legitimize patriarchal discourse. Anyway, more often than not they have probably left no offspring. Perhaps 1 should provocatively address them as aunts and uncles? 1n Christianity, Social Tolerance, and Homosexuality: Gay People in Western Europe from the Beginning of the Christian Era to the Fourteenth Century,^ John Boswell writes about the complex problem of terminology, arguing, however, for the use of the terms “lesbian” and “gay” even in reference to past epochs. Yet 1 will not follow that sugges­ tion, because, especially in Poland, those are usually affirmative terms and one of the definitions of a gay man describes him as a homosexual who accepts and affirms his psychosexual identity.

  • Psychological Study of Sex & Gender
    Updated last on October 9, 2020 Psychological Study of Sex & Gender PSY 2240 [4-credits] Fall 2020 Özge Savaş (she/her) || [email protected] || Barn 214A Class meets online Every Monday and Thursday, 2-4:30pm Student (office) hours online Every Wednesday, 1:30-3:30pm (and by appointment) COURSE DESCRIPTION & OBJECTIVES Why is the first thing people want to know about a baby is their gender/sex? How are children socialized into gender/sex binaries? How do dominant social and cultural formations actually produce men and women? How is gender/sex related to sexuality? What is it that we are attracted to in another person? Body frames? Masculinity/femininity? Having a penis or a vagina/vulva? How does gender/sex depend on other categories such as race/ethnicity, nationality, class, religion, and ability? How do interlocking systems of oppression (e.g. sexism, racism, classism, xenophobia, ableism) influence people’s lives? In this class, we will learn to make evidence-based arguments about gender and sex while situating lived experiences of women and sexual minorities in context, gain media literacy in examining examples from pop culture, understand the role of heteropatriarchal and racist ideologies and institutions in social inequity, and learn to think and write critically about gender in its social, cultural, historical and political context. LEARNING GOALS § Explain how dominant social and cultural formations of gender actually produce women and men, girls and boys. § Identify interlocking systems of oppression (i.e. heteropatriarchy, transphobia, racism, classism, xenophobia, ableism) and analyze the relationship of gender other categories (i.e. race, ethnicity, nationality, ability, class, sexuality).

  • Heteropatriarchy and the Three Pillars of White Supremacy Rethinking Women of Color Organizing
    Heteropatriarchy and the Three Pillars of White Supremacy Rethinking Women of Color Organizing Andrea Smith Scenario #1 A group of women of color come together to organize. An argu- ment ensues about whether or not Arab women should be included. Some argue that Arab women are "white" since they have been classified as such in the US census. Another argument erupts over whether or not Latinas qualify as "women of color," since some may be classified as "white" in their Latin American countries of origin and/or "pass" as white in the United States. Scenario #2 In a discussion on racism, some people argue that Native peoples suffer from less racism than other people of color because they gen- erally do not reside in segregated neighborhoods within the United States. In addition, some argue that since tribes now have gaming, Native peoples are no longer "oppressed." Scenario #3 A multiracial campaign develops involving diverse conpunities of color in which some participants charge that we must stop the blacklwhite binary, and end Black hegemony over people of color politics to develop a more "multicultural" framework. However, this campaign continues to rely on strategies and cultural motifs developed by the Black Civil Rights struggle in the United States. These incidents, which happen quite frequently in "women of color" or "pee;' of color" political organizing struggles, are often explained as a consequenii. "oppression olympics." That is to say, one problem we have is that we are too b::- fighting over who is more oppressed. In this essay, I want to argue that thescir- dents are not so much the result of "oppression olympics" but are more abour t-, we have inadequately framed "women of color" or "people of color" politics.
