THE FAST TRACK
Inside the Surging Business of Women's Sports
JANE McMANUS
Investigating adversity and advancement for women’s sports
“Jane McManus has long been charting the growth of women’s sports with stories behind the scenes and in front of the cameras. Now, with The Fast Track, she provides the inside scoop on where we've been, where we are going, and why it matters.” —Billie Jean King
“No one cares about women’s sports” is a familiar refrain from vocal skeptics, but as The Fact Track shows, a series of watershed moments reflect the increasing popularity of and support for women’s sports from both investors and fans.
Veteran sports journalist and academic Jane McManus examines both this upward trend and the forces that have held women’s sports back since the early 1970s when Title IX became law (and Billie Jean King soundly defeated Bobby Riggs). As the fervor for Caitlin Clark during the 2024 NCAA Women’s Basketball championship illustrates, there is big money to be made from broadcasting, merchandising, and investing in women’s sports.
The Fast Track chronicles how pioneering sponsorships, broadcast opportunities, and surges in ratings contradict the myths about disinterest. Interviews counter the resistance toward women’s leagues, reveal how women are covered in the media, and consider the possibilities for further investment. McManus also addresses racial inclusivity, transgender athletes, women’s health issues, and equal pay.
An essential road map to capitalize on untapped potential, The Fast Track provides a snapshot of where women’s sports as an industry and investment stand at this moment in time.
JANE McMANUS is Adjunct Professor at New York University at the Preston Robert Tisch Institute for Global Sport. She was the founding Executive Director of the Center for Sports Media at Seton Hall University and taught at the Columbia Graduate School of Journalism, Michigan State University, and Marist College.

A SPORTS ODYSSEY
My Ithaca Journal
GRANT FARRED
How sports evoke love
Grant Farred has long had a passionate connection with sports. In A Sports Odyssey, he weaves together an account of his own sports fandom that is profoundly personal and universal.
As readers of his Long Distance Love know, Grant Farred has been a supporter of the English Premier League club, Liverpool Football Club, for decades. His fandom for that team launched an unexpected connection with a world beyond the limits of the apartheid state of his upbringing in South Africa. However, A Sports Odyssey shows that as Farred’s fervor for Liverpool ended, he developed a new set of sports attachments in Ithaca, New York: to his son’s youth basketball career, to the men’s basketball team at Cornell University and its coach, and even to professional teams like the New York Knicks. Farred’s bemusement at finding himself a sports parent, a New Yorker, and a company man, only underline the sincerity of his affections.
In A Sports Odyssey, Farred writes elegantly and eloquently about how sports and sports fandom create a sense of belonging, but also loss. This is a heartfelt examination of how we find “home” in who and what we love.
GRANT FARRED is the author of Long Distance Love: A Passion for Football; The Burden of Over-representation: Race, Sport, and Philosophy; The Perversity of Gratitude: An Apartheid Education; and the editor of Africana Studies: Theoretical Futures (all Temple).

REMISSION QUEST
A Medical Sociologist Navigates Cancer
VIRGINIA ADAMS O'CONNELL
Sharing the story of being diagnosed with and treated for lymphoma—and the knowledge it provides
As a medical sociologist, Virginia Adams O’Connell long studied the healthcare system and people navigating illness. Then, in 2019, she confronted her own reality of being diagnosed with primary bone lymphoma. “Since my diagnosis, I joined a club of current and past patients that I never wanted or intended to join,” she writes with both candor and poignancy, adding, “But we can collectively work to make it the best club it can be.”
In the course of diagnosis, treatment, and recovery, Adams O’Connell lived through theories she had researched and applied her sociological ideas to help make sense of her personal experiences. Remission Quest chronicles how the reality of living with cancer changed her perspective on what she had studied. Adams O’Connell found her knowledge illustrated and enriched her sociological analysis of our medical institutions and that her own illness narrative shone new light on her theories.
With moving prose, Remission Quest captures the emotions of having cancer and dealing with elaborate medical systems, learning how to be a “good patient” while also managing indescribable fear and fatigue, and confronting questions about the meaning of life. Adams O’Connell’s experiences are both personal and universal. They provide inspiration, compassion, and understanding.

CANARIES IN THE CODE MINE
Precarity and the Future of Tech Work
MAX PAPADANTONAKIS
Explores the vulnerabilities of software developers in the tech industry
The idea that the tech industry is a secure field with jobs and opportunities for growth is a myth. There is widespread precarity among software developers, who experience uncertainty, anxiety, and imposter syndrome as technological advancements threaten job security. Max Papadantonakis investigates this phenomenon in his revealing study, Canaries in the Code Mine. He indicates that precarity is not just about the risk of losing one’s job; it is about living in a career where basic needs and rights are not guaranteed.
Interviewing 120 software developers from leading tech firms, Papadantonakis shows how temporary contracts, project cancellations, and company downsizing undermine the security of even highly skilled professionals. He also highlights the systemic inequalities that shape the tech industry, showing how age, race, and gender often dictate the opportunities and responsibilities software developers have—or are denied.
Canaries in the Code Mine highlights a disturbing reality of privilege and vulnerability within the tech industry. Papadantonakis engages in a critical discourse on the evolving nature of work in the digital era, emphasizing the need to shape an equitable future in the rapidly evolving landscape.
MAX PAPADANTONAKIS is Assistant Professor of Sociology in the Department of Social Sciences and Global Studies at California State University, Monterey Bay.

BE WATER
Collective Improvisation in Hong Kong's Anti-Extradition Protests
MING-SHO HO
How Hongkongers launched a large-scale protest movement with collective improvisation
During the eventful summer of 2019 in Hong Kong, the Be Water Revolution formed to resist the proposed extradition of fugitives to mainland China’s courts. With its name derived from martial arts master Bruce Lee’s adage to be “formless and shapeless like water,” the movement turned out to be the city’s largest episode of contentious politics and was unique for using impromptu communication among participants and the absence of central leadership.
In Be Water, Ming-sho Ho examines the dynamics of the city-wide uprising from the perspective of agency power. He seeks to understand how numerous and anonymous Hongkongers contributed to this epochmaking campaign as well as how they responded to the full-scale state repression that enveloped them. Ho praises and questions the durability of the inventive Be Water Revolution and how the activists encouraged protests spontaneously, through interpersonal networks and by voluntarily collaborating with strangers at great personal risk.
Ho posits a new concept of “collective improvisation” to make sense of such a decentralized yet creative way of protesting. Be Water seeks to understand the rise and long afterlife of this movement and illustrate its efficacy. As Ho shows, these dynamics of collective improvisation have implications for contemporary protest movements around the world.

COUNTERFEITED IN CHINA
The Operations of Illicit Businesses
KO-LIN CHIN
Dispels the many myths surrounding an illegal industry through face-to-face interviews with luxury-goods counterfeiters in Guangzhou, China
Counterfeiting tops the list of organized crimes committed worldwide, raking in nearly half a trillion dollars in 2019. The impact of this illicit business is felt by consumers, brand owners, state authorities, and workers, and it impacts the economy. Moreover, its proliferation has fueled the advancement of organized crime groups.
In his illuminating study, Counterfeited in China, Ko-lin Chin investigates this lucrative industry and its emergence in China. His face-to-face interviews with counterfeiters — business owners, workers, facilitators, and key informants — in the hub of Guangzhou, China reveal how businesses that design, produce, and distribute fake and unauthorized luxury goods manage the risks inherent in their business.
Counterfeited in China examines the individual and group characteristics of counterfeiters and their relationships with organized crime; analyzes the economic aspects of counterfeiting; assesses the relationships among counterfeiting, violence, and corruption; and seeks to understand the demand for counterfeit goods. Chin also discusses the role of Chinese authorities and other parties in the war against counterfeiting.
Assessing the state of the industry and its future, Chin provides fascinating new insights into the modus operandi of counterfeiters.

INEQUALITY, CRIME, AND RESISTANCE IN NEW YORK CITY
TIMOTHY P. R. WEAVER
Shows that urban politics and political development are driven by clashes among multiple political orders
Looking closely at New York City’s political development since the 1970s, three “political orders”—conservativism, neoliberalism, and egalitarianism—emerged. In Inequality, Crime, and Resistance in New York City, Timothy Weaver argues that the intercurrent impact of these orders has created a constant battle for power. Weaver brings these clashes to the fore by showing how New York City politics has been shaped by these conflicting orders. He examines the transformation of the city’s political economy in the aftermath of the 1975 fiscal crisis through neoliberal real estate development and privatization, the conservative rise of law-and-order politics in the 1970s to 1990s, and the efforts of the city’s egalitarians to respond to each of these shifts through social movements such as Occupy and Black Lives Matter.
Inequality, Crime, and Resistance in New York City belies glib assumptions about the city’s liberal character. Weaver reveals the metropolis not as a homogenous political whole, but as a site in which the victories and defeats of rival political forces change the terms of local citizenship for the millions of residents who call the city home.

REEL FREEDOM
Black Film Culture in Early Twentieth-Century New York City
ALYSSA LOPEZ
How Black New Yorkers used film culture to claim the city as their own
Reel Freedom intimately captures the relationship between Black film culture and space in New York City. Alyssa Lopez argues that Black film culture, from its origins in the early twentieth century to its firm establishment in the 1930s, was necessarily both entertainment and resistance, connected as it was to Black New Yorkers’ demands for access and equality in the city.
Lopez investigates how ordinary people, labor activists, journalists, filmmakers, theater managers, and owners all shaped Black film culture. Black girls and women used moviegoing as a means of independence and control over their lives. Race filmmaker Oscar Micheaux fought with New York State’s censorship board to get his films screened with limited edits in local theaters. And Harlem’s Black projectionists battled for unionization and fair pay, while journalists linked cinema to Black New Yorkers’ lived experiences.
In Reel Freedom, Lopez chronicles the wide-ranging and remarkable pervasiveness of Black film culture in New York City, redefining a period and place most associated with the Harlem Renaissance. In doing so, she illustrates how Black New Yorkers leveraged cinema to make the city their own and to enjoy urban living to its fullest.

VISUALITY OF VIOLENCE
Witnessing the Policing of Race
OFELIA ORTIZ CUEVAS
Examining the visual, political economic, legal, and cultural functions of racial violence
Visuality of Violence unpacks the way visual documentations and depictions of the practice of racial violence are used in imperialism, capitalism, and neoliberalism in the United States. Ofelia Ortiz Cuevas traces the continuity of racial value through the shifting narratives of race by examining the long-running TV series, COPS, and the museum exhibition, Without Sanctuary, which features photographs of lynching. These case studies provide an innovative holistic mapping of the policing and incarceration of Black and Brown people.
Addressing the frequently ignored experiences of Asian and Native Americans, among others, in its comparative undertaking, Visuality of Violence exceeds intersectional mapping to uniquely charge the spectacle of racial violence as a foundational practice in its continued presence in contemporary society. Cuevas argues that the visual presentations of the racial body throughout history requires a reckoning and acknowledgement of the material and legal effects of the images, narratives, and practices used to maintain hegemonic racial order and inequality.
In holding a theoretical mirror to history, Visuality of Violence reveals liberal mythical reliance on the ideals of western law and its rationalities as the location of justice and freedom, thereby presenting its readers with a new understanding in the quest for peace and liberation.

THEATRES OF THE BODY
Dance and Discourse in Antebellum Philadelphia
LYNN MATLUCK BROOKS
An expansive study of Philadelphia’s significant contributions to dance during the nation’s political, social, and intellectual development
Theatres of the Body is Lynn Matluck Brooks’ critical examination of danced stage productions in antebellum Philadelphia. Starting in the 1820s, Brooks explores visual art and social and theatrical dancing across different classes, focusing on the work of E. W. Clay. Continuing through the 1830s, she looks at pantomime ballets and blackface minstrelsy through a political lens, asking questions regarding citizenship, slavery, and freedom. At the time, the city boasted the largest number of native-born ballet dancers in the young nation. Philadelphia also became a creative home to blackface star T. D. Rice, who helped popularize that performance genre.
Reviewing print culture in the 1840s, Brooks shows how newspapers, magazines, and popular fiction provided documentation of dancing in Philadelphia as well as the responses of dance commentators, practitioners, and moralists. Theatres of the Body also considers the interplay of science with dance in the 1850s, which impacted both dance practices and reception.
Providing an expansive historiography of these significant contributions to dance in the United States, Brooks deepens our understanding of antebellum culture and history.
LYNN MATLUCK BROOKS is Arthur and Katherine Shadek Professor of Humanities, Emerita, at Franklin & Marshall College. She is the author of John Durang: Man of the American Stage, The Art of Dancing in Seventeenth-Century Spain: Juan de Esquivel Navarro and His World, and The Dances of the Processions of Seville in Spain's Golden Age and the editor of Women’s Work: Making Dance in Europe before 1800.

MONSTROUS NATURE AND REPRESENTATIONS OF ENVIRONMENTAL HARMS
A Green Cultural Criminological Perspective
AVI BRISMAN AND NIGEL SOUTH
How popular culture informs our ideas about harms to the environment caused by humans
How does culture influence human relationships with the environment? In Monstrous Nature and Representations of Environmental Harms, green cultural criminologists Avi Brisman and Nigel South examine stories of monsters and disasters to address how the ways we depict and think about harms to the environment dissuade us from taking care of our planet and each other.
The authors use examples from popular culture, including Disney and Marvel Cinematic Universe films, to consider ideas about how the environment responds to people who cause it harm. Brisman and South identify and discuss three dominant and interrelated depictions of the relationship between humans and the environment: first, nature as monstrous or fear inducing; second, nature and the Earth (or parts of it) as abject; and third, the entanglement of nature and the apocalypse, wherein nature is contributing to the end of the world, with an end point sometimes conceptualized as one without humans.
Monstrous Nature and Representations of Environmental Harms argues that such representations have material consequences. The authors make the case for challenging them so that we neither perpetuate them nor retreat into cynicism and defeatism about the future of our planet.

SODOMY’S SOLICITATIONS
A Right to Queerness
JOSEPH J. FISCHEL
Advances a queer politics that backgrounds identity claims and foregrounds instead the state’s deployment of sex to govern
Joseph Fischel’s provocative book, Sodomy’s Solicitations, builds out a politics of sexual justice that challenges state sex exceptionalism. By tracing several twenty-first century contestations around Louisiana anti-sodomy laws, Fischel examines patterns and practices of sexual injustice that are too easily eclipsed by our collective focus on marginalized identities.
The political stories narrated in Sodomy’s Solicitations are undoubtedly stories of racism, sexism, homophobia, and transphobia, but they are also stories of other political problems—and political possibilities. Fischel indicts U.S. sex offender regulatory regimes as state-sponsored sexual violence; offers a qualified defense for sexual expression in public; and argues that animal sexual abuse laws, with their exemptions for industrial agricultural practices, authorize the suffering they were enacted to deter. He also makes the case that laws criminalizing the exchange of sex for money are unconstitutional, and proposes that the best way to protect trans and queer children might just be to enfranchise them.
Sodomy’s Solicitations champions a right to queerness across rather than within identity formations—a right to relatively unpoliced gender, sexual, and intimate pluralism.

LOVE IN THE LAV
A Social Biography of Same-Sex Desire in Ireland, 1922–1972
AVERILL EARLS
Tells the unexpected, sometimes heartbreaking stories of Dublin’s men who desired men and the Gardaí who policed them
Love in the Lav uncovers Ireland’s queer lives of the past. Averill Earls investigates how same-sex-desiring men lived and loved in a country where their sexuality was illegal and seen as unnatural. Across seven social biographical chapters, each highlighting individuals at the nexus of these histories, Earls constructs a narrative of experiences through the larger contexts in which they are embedded.
Earls uses courtroom testimonies, police records, and family history archives as well as “educated speculation” to show how structures governing male same-sex desire in Ireland played out on the bodies of the men who desired men, the teen boys who sold sex to men, and the way the Catholic-nationalist ethos shaped the Gardaí who policed them.
Love in the Lav examines the experiences of people such as cabbie James Hand, who was put on trial for gross indecency, to provide a window into the queer working-class subculture of 1930s Dublin. Earls also focuses on issues of consent, especially with teens, and the unregulated queer Irish world of public figures, including Micheál Mac Liammóir, Hilton Edwards, Ronald Brown, and John Broderick.
By examining twentieth-century Ireland through the lived experiences of ordinary same-sex-desiring Irish men who were relegated to obscurity by Irish society, Earls reveals the contradictions, possibilities, and magnitude of postcolonial Irish Catholic nationalism.

FAMILY AND DISABILITY ACTIVISM
Beyond Allies and Obstacles
EDITED BY PAMELA BLOCK, ALLISON C. CAREY, AND RICHARD K. SCOTCH
Giving voice to a range of intersectional disability and parent experiences within social movement activism
In 2020, Pamela Block, Allison C. Carey, and Richard K. Scotch published Allies and Obstacles, which examined the tensions and connections between disability activism and parents of children with disabilities. In Family and Disability Activism, they continue to examine these issues with a focus on the path-breaking advocacy by marginalized activists with intersectional lived experiences.
Family and Disability Activism reveals how families and disabled people who identify as BIPOC and/or LGBTQIA2S+ understand issues of rights versus justice. Contributions by Deaf and disabled activists emphasize the frequent need for either care or independence. Other chapters show how members of the disabled community and their families must navigate systemic issues of segregation, institutionalization, and access to special education services differently depending on their ethnic and racial identities.
Expanding the conversation about disability, kinship, biological and chosen families, and activism, this volume amplifies important voices in the fight for disability rights.

Interrogates and reconfigures possibilities for activist–intellectual work during times of social transformation
The editors and contributors to Cultural Studies in the Interregnum mobilize transnational cultural studies as a tool for politically engaged intellectual critique. Alongside the work of emerging and established scholars and activists, they think through massive cultural shifts and explore the possibilities of the in-between.
Covering queer and feminist studies, critical disability studies, and critical race and ethnic studies, the essays in Cultural Studies in the Interregnum reflect on our shared political pasts and futures. Using examples ranging from media and literature to sex work, policing, and university systems, this exciting volume probes what cultural studies means in moments of social transformation.

NEW SERIES ANNOUNCEMENT...
Edited by Ira Harkavy, John L. Puckett, and Rita A. Hodges (all from the Netter Center for Community Partnerships at the University of Pennsylvania) the Higher Education, Place, and Social Responsibility series publishes books that address universities' roles in improving the quality of life in their local and regional communities. It is motivated by a global higher education democratic, civic, and community engagement movement, which emphasizes that collaboration inside and outside the academy is necessary for producing knowledge that solves real-world problems and results in positive changes in the human condition. Books in the series support a vision of the university as a democratically engaged institution—a part of the community, rather than a gated and privileged enclave within it or as an ivory tower separated from it.
Prospective authors should contact Ira Harkavy or Editor-in-Chief Aaron Javsicas at Temple University Press to discuss their work in progress for inclusion in the series.
EUROPEAN HIGHER EDUCATION, SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY, AND THE
LOCAL DEMOCRATIC
MISSION
SJUR BERGAN
Provides global lessons from Europe’s experience developing a culture of democracy through higher education
Education is about more than preparing students for the labor market; it is about preparing them to be active citizens in democratic societies, to engage in personal growth, and to develop a broad, advanced knowledge base. As Sjur Bergan emphasizes in European Higher Education, Social Responsibility, and the Local Democratic Mission, advocacy is required to ensure that higher education institutions meet these goals through cooperation with their local communities.
Bergan outlines the political and institutional complexity of European universities. He explains how history, cultural traditions, and national identities impact education across Europe. He also describes the roles of the Council of Europe and U.S. higher education in the development of a transatlantic cooperation on the democratic mission of higher education. Other chapters explore education programs for developing and maintaining democracy and human rights, pragmatic and creative ways that European universities are working with their local communities, and the development of education opportunities for refugees.
Ultimately, Bergan’s book explores not only the local democratic mission of higher education as it has developed in Europe, but also how it could continue to develop, and why it is important it does so.

He was instrumental in the development of the Council of Europe’s cooperation on the democratic mission of higher education with U.S. and international partners.

THE HIDDEN FACE OF LOCAL POWER
Appointed Boards and the Limits of Democracy
MIRYA R. HOLMAN
Juxtaposes appointed boards that generate policy and consolidate power with others that pacify agitation from marginalized groups
The Hidden Face of Local Power explicates the purpose, role, and consequences of appointed boards in U.S. cities. Mirya Holman finds that cities create strong boards that generate policy, consolidate power, and defend the interests of businesses and wealthy and white residents. In contrast, weak boards pacify agitation from marginalized groups to give the appearance of inclusivity, democratic deliberation, and redistributional policymaking. Cities preserve this strong board/weak board dichotomy through policymaking power, institutional design, and by controlling who serves on the boards.
The Hidden Face of Local Power examines the role of boards in the development of urban political institutions, the allocation of power in local politics, and the persistence of inequality. Holman enhances our understanding of how political institutions have contributed to racism and their impact on how people use and live in urban spaces. In her shrewd analysis of the creation and use of boards as political institutions, Holman proves that neither weak nor strong boards achieve the goal they are advertised to achieve. In doing so, she provides a new view of the failures of local democracy along with ideas for improvement.

MAPPING ASIATOWN CLEVELAND
Race and
Redevelopment
in the Rust Belt
REBECCA JO KINNEY
Analyzing the role of regional racial formation in Asian American community development in the Rust Belt
Cleveland, Ohio is not a location that most people associate with Asian American placemaking. However, on Cleveland’s East Side, multigenerational and panethnic Asian American residents and business owners are building community in the AsiaTown neighborhood. Mapping AsiaTown Cleveland foregrounds the importance of region in racial formation and redevelopment as it traces the history of racial segregation and neighborhood diversity.
Mapping AsiaTown Cleveland challenges ideas about the invisibility of Asian Americans in the urban Midwest by linking the contemporary development of Cleveland’s “AsiaTown” to the multiple and fragmented histories of Cleveland’s Asian American communities from the 1940s to present day. Kinney’s sharp insights illustrate how region matters for Japanese Americans who resettled from concentration camps and Chinese Americans food purveyors, as well as the ways in which Asian American community leaders have had to fight for visibility and representation in city planning—even as the Cleveland Asian Festival is branded as a marquee “diversity” event for the city.
Mapping AsiaTown Cleveland recognizes the vibrant Asian American community formations and belonging that have developed in seemingly unexpected spaces and places.

AMERICAN CORRUPTION TALK
A Political Etymology
ROBERT G. BOATRIGHT AND MOLLY BRIGID M CGRATH
Explores differences in how Americans have deployed corruption talk throughout the nation’s history
Americans often worry about political corruption—not only about specific officials misusing their power, but also more broadly about political, cultural, and moral decay or deterioration. Underneath our talk about corruption lie deeper claims and concerns about how we organize our common life. American Corruption Talk presents a study of corruption and corruption talk that seeks to understand those concerns.
Robert Boatright and Molly Brigid McGrath focus on the role corruption talk plays in American political discourse. They distinguish between two ways people speak about corruption—corruption talk in the style of a purifier, who wishes to expunge the evil forces or drain the swamp, and corruption talk in the style of the mender, who thinks of managing, replacing, or repairing.
American Corruption Talk begins by tracing how the concept of political corruption was developed by philosophers and political thinkers, leading up to its use in the American context, especially in the Progressive Era. It also compares modes of contemporary corruption talk in different areas of public life. In doing so, the authors hope to resolve confusion and partisan disagreements about what corruption is and to discourage the tendency to label actions, events, and ideas that we merely disagree with as corrupt.
ROBERT G. BOATRIGHT is Professor of Political Science at Clark University and Director of Research for the National Institute for Civil Discourse at the University of Arizona.
MOLLY BRIGID M CGRATH is Professor of Philosophy at Assumption University and is the Director of the D’Amour Center for Teaching Excellence.
FOUNDATIONS OF BLACK EPISTEMOLOGY
Knowledge Discourse in Africana Philosophy
ADEBAYO OLUWAYOMI
An exploration of questions about agency and the power of knowledge from the Black philosophical perspective
Foundations of Black Epistemology is Adebayo Oluwayomi’s bold endeavor to delineate Black epistemology as a new sub-disciplinary focus in contemporary Africana or Black philosophy. He engages in a rigorous historical study of Black intellectual history to show how seminal Black thinkers have long been interested in and engaged with questions concerning the phenomenon of human knowledge, and questions around human agency, including practical considerations regarding the social and political value of knowledge.
Foundations of Black Epistemology examines writings by Phillis Wheatley, Frederick Douglas, Ida B. Wells, W.E.B. DuBois, Frantz Fanon, Steve Bantu Biko, Huey P. Newtown, and Kathleen Neal Clever. Each chapter addresses issues of self-knowledge, self-assertion, Black consciousness, or anticolonialism and its relation to personal and political epistemologies.
Oluwayomi offers innovative perspectives on the formulation, deduction, and interrogation of epistemological themes within Black Africana philosophy. By considering the important epistemological theories and arguments in Black philosophy particularly in the last 150 to 200 years, Foundations of Black Epistemology promises to generate new discussions around this necessary field of Black Africana philosophy.
ADEBAYO OLUWAYOMI is Assistant Professor in the Department of Philosophy at West Chester University.

THE IMPROVISER’S CLASSROOM
Pedagogies for Cocreative Worldmaking
EDITED BY DANIEL FISCHLIN AND MARK LOMANNO
An adept improviser can find ways forward amid impasse, agency amid oppression, and community amid division. The editors and contributors to The Improviser’s Classroom present an array of critical approaches intended to reimagine pedagogy through the prisms of activism, reciprocity, and communal care.
Demonstrating how improvisation can inform scenes of teaching and learning, this volume also outlines how improvisatory techniques offer powerful, if not vital, tools for producing connection, creativity, accompaniment, reciprocity, meaningful revelation, and lifelong curiosity.
The Improviser's Classroom champions activist pedagogies and the public work essential for creating communities bound together by reciprocal care and equity.
Contributors: Sibongile Bhebhe, Judit Csobod, Michael Dessen, jashen edwards, Kate Galloway, Tomie Hahn, Petro Janse van Vuuren, Lauren Michelle Levesque, George Lipsitz, Rich Marsella, Tracy McMullen, Hafez Modirzadeh, Ed Sarath, Joe Sorbara, Jesse Stewart, Ellen Waterman, Carey West, and the editors
DANIEL FISCHLIN is a Professor in the School of English and Theatre Studies at the University of Guelph.
