The Black Press and the Built Environment in Chicago E. James West
The Crisis of Black Masculinity in Racial Capitalism Jordanna Matlon
UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS PRESS
CORNELL UNIVERSITY PRESS
Buildings once symbolized Chicago's place as the business capital of Black America and a thriving hub for Black media. West examines the city's Black press through its rela�onship with the built environment. The buildings of publica�ons like Ebony and the Chicago Defender embodied narra�ves of racial upli� and community resistance.
Examines compe�ng construc�ons of modern manhood in the West African metropolis of Abidjan, Côte d'Ivoire. Matlon shows how French colonial legacies and media tropes of Blackness act as powerful axes, roo�ng masculine iden�ty and value within labor, consumerism, and commodifica�on.

Race, in the early modern period, is a concept at the crossroads of a set of overlapping concerns of lineage, religion, and na�on. Bad Humor charts how these concerns converged around a pseudoscien�fic system that confirmed the absolute difference between Protestants and Catholics and jus�fied English colonial domina�on.
NEW YORK UNIVERSITY PRESS
Examines the dis�nc�ve features of Blackiden�fying Buddhist prac��oners, arguing that Black Buddhists interpret Buddhist teachings in ways that are congruent with Black radical thought. The volume makes the case that given their experiences with racism, Black cultural frameworks are necessary for illumina�ng the Buddha’s wisdom. Excludes Taiwan, Japan, SE Asia & ANZ

How Ethnic Community Support Pays for Corporate America Patricia A. Banks
The Crisis and Challenge of the Musical Archive Mark Anthony Neal NEW YORK UNIVERSITY PRESS
STANFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS
In an era of Big Data and algorithms, our easy access to the archive of contemporary and historical Blackness is unprecedented. While this book celebrates this new access, it also ques�ons the crisis and the challenge of the Black musical archive in a moment when Black American culture has become a global export. Neal offers a new framework for thinking about Black culture in the digital world.
A surprising and fascina�ng look at how Black culture has been leveraged by corporate America, this book addresses some of today's most pressing public debates around allyship and diversity. Banks argues that Black cultural patronage profits firms by signaling that they value diversity, equity, and inclusion.

NEW YORK UNIVERSITY PRESS
Now!” This rallying cry became the most iconic phrase of the Civil Rights Movement, challenging the persistent command that Black people wait for their long-deferred libera�on.

Contributors to this special issue use crisis as a framework to explore historical and present-day Black temporali�es. Considering how moments of emergency shi� and redefine one’s rela�onship to �me and temporality—par�cularly in the material, psychic, and emo�onal lives of Black people—the authors examine the resul�ng paradoxical aspects of �me.
Offers a medita�on on blackness and gender nonnorma�vity in ways that recalibrate tradi�onal understandings of each, conceiving of black trans feminism as a poli�cs grounded in fugi�vity and the subversion of power. Together, blackness and transness actualize themselves as on the run from gender.

Family and Slavery in the French Atlantic Jennifer L. Palmer
Slavery and the Visual Culture of Domestic Violence Kelli Moore
Traces the poli�cal origins of the concept of domes�c violence through visual culture in the United States, showing how it is rooted in the archive of slavery. By posi�oning tes�mony on contemporary domes�c violence prosecu�on within the archive of slavery, Moore demonstrates that domes�c violence and its image are haunted by black bodies, black flesh, and black freedom.
Following the stories of families who built their lives and fortunes across the Atlan�c Ocean, In�mate Bonds shows how households anchored the French empire and shaped the meanings of race, slavery, and gender in the early modern period. This engagingly wri�en history reveals that personal choices and family strategies shaped larger cultural and legal shi�s. 3

Amid fervent conversa�ons about an�racism and police violence, this book delivers vital new ideas about how our feelings about race are governed and normalized by our media landscape.

Offers the first historical overview of the overlapping racializa�on of Asians and Asian Americans through their confla�on with the robotmachine nexus. He puts forth the concept of the “model machine myth,” which holds specific queries about personhood, ci�zenship, labor, and rights in the transna�onal making of Asian/America. Excludes Asia Pacific

The Church of Jesus Christ of La�er-day Saints con�nues to contend with longstanding tensions surrounding gender and race. Caroline Kline explores the ways La�er-day Saint women of color in Mexico, Botswana, and the US navigate gender norms, but also how their moral priori�es and ac�ons challenge Western feminist assump�ons.

DUKE UNIVERSITY PRESS
UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS PRESS
Explores the figure of the sissy as central to how Americans have imagined, ar�culated, and nego�ated black masculinity from the 1880s to the present. Ross shows how sissiness cons�tutes a historically fluid range of gender prac�ces that is expressed as a physical manifesta�on, discursive epithet, social iden�ty, and poli�cal phenomenon.
Kelli D. Zaytoun draws on Gloria Anzaldúa's thought to present a radically inclusive and expansive approach to sel�ood, crea�vity, scholarship, healing, coali�on-building, and ac�vism. Zaytoun focuses on Anzaldúa's naguala/ shapeshi�er, a concept of nagualismo. Excludes SE Asia, Indian sc & ANZ

How does Mar�n Luther King, Jr., understand race philosophically and how did this understanding lead him to develop an ontological concep�on of racist police violence? In this important new work, Mark Chris�an Thompson a�empts to answer these ques�ons, examining ontology in Mar�n Luther King, Jr.'s philosophy.

For almost two centuries, the train has served as the literal and symbolic vehicle for American na�onal iden�ty, manifest des�ny, and imperial ambi�ons. By considering the train through various lenses, this book tracks how racial forma�ons and conflicts are cons�tuted in significant and contradictory ways by the spaces in which they occur, revealing the legacy of the train as a cri�cal site of race in the United States.
STANFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS
Having a "good" sense of humor generally means being able to take a joke without ge�ng offended. The insinua�on is that laughter eases social tension in a poli�cized social world. But, do the stakes change when the jokes are racist? Pérez argues that we must confront this unse�ling ques�on in order to fully understand the persistence of an�-black racism and white supremacy in American society today.
