Drawing on the social and poli�cal thought of James Baldwin and Mar�n Luther King, Grant Farred examines the tempta�on and the perils of essen�alism and the need to discriminate—to engage the black mind as much as the black body.
A New Working Class traces efforts by Black publicsector workers and their unions to fight for racial and economic jus�ce in Bal�more. Federal policy shi�s imperiled their efforts. Officials jus�fied weakening the welfare state and strengthening the carceral state by criminalizing Black residents— including government workers.

How Modern Racism Emerged from Medieval Race-Thinking Cord J. Whitaker
Genre Fiction in the Shadow of Jim Crow Brooks E. Hefner
UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA PRESS
UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA PRESS
A deep dive into mid-century African American newspapers, exploring how Black pulp fic�on reassembled genre formulas in the service of racial jus�ce. As Brooks E. Hefner’s Black Pulp shows, the tradi�on of an�racist genre revision begins even earlier than recent studies of Black superhero comics of the 1960s have revealed.
In Black Metaphors, Cord J. Whitaker argues that rhetoric and theology establish blackness and whiteness as metaphors for sin and purity in medieval English and European wri�ng. Whitaker shows how these metaphors came to guide the development of no�ons of race in the centuries that followed.

DUKE UNIVERSITY PRESS
Maps the context and contours of Black life in the Hawaiian Islands. This ethnography emerges from a decade of fieldwork with both Hawaiʻi-raised Black locals and Black transplants who moved to the Islands from North America, Africa, and the Caribbean. Nitasha Tamar Sharma highlights the paradox of Hawaiʻi as a mul�racial paradise and site of unacknowledged an�-Black racism.
In Interplay of Things Anthony B. Pinn theorizes religion as a technology for interroga�ng human experiences and the boundaries between people and other things. Rather than considering religion in terms of ins�tu�ons, doctrines, and creeds, Pinn shows how religion exposes the openness and porousness of all things and how they are always involved in processes of exchange and interplay. 3

In There’s A Disco Ball Between Us, Jafari S. Allen offers a sweeping and lively ethnographic and intellectual history of what he calls “Black gay habits of mind.” In conversa�onal and lyrical language, Allen locates this sensibility as it emerged from radical Black lesbian ac�vism and wri�ng during the long 1980s.
Elizabeth McHenry locates a hidden chapter in the history of Black literature at the turn of the twen�eth century, revising concepts of Black authorship and offering a fresh account of the development of “Negro literature” focused on the never published, the barely read, and the unconven�onal.
