"Black Trans Feminism" with Marquis Bey
Do we perhaps deserve the impossible? This is only one of the many beautiful questions Marquis Bey asks in this poem of an episode. Marquis is an exquisite thinker who joins me to speak about the incredible book Black Trans Feminism and share thoughts about why such a feminism is for everyone. Marquis speaks about how literature allows us to imagine new possibilities to exist in the world and see how everything is entangled with everything else. Join me to learn from Marquis, to think about abolition, coalition, fugitivity and traniflesh, and to imagine what the world could be beyond...

Elastic Kinship: We Are Family
Parev fam! Sister Sledge said it best: we are fam-ily! Today, we are meditating on the term “elastic kinship”—literally! Episode 6 offers a guided meditation, a potential outlet for listeners to connect with us, chosen kin, and ancestors during a tear-filled vulnerable hour. How do we choose our family? And what does the history of photography have to do with this complex question? The answer lies within YOU…and this episode! In the words of Saidiya Hartman, “Flexible and elastic kinship were not a ‘plantation holdover,’ but a resource of black survival, a practice that documented the generosity and...

We break down Afro-pessimism as an ideology, practice, and meta-theory, questioning how seriously it should be taken in the fight against anti-Blackness. Plus, we explore a provocative question: Is Candace Owens an Afro-pessimist, but for evil?------------------------------------------------What is Afro-pessimism?Afro-pessimism is a critical theory that examines the legacy of the transatlantic slave trade, positioning it not just as a hi...

A la fin des années 90, elle est elle-même retournée au Ghana, sur la trace supposée, et peut-être fantasmée, de ses ancêtres. Elle fait donc elle-même l’expér...

Saidiya Hartman – Wayward Lives, Beautiful Experiments
A revolution took place in the United States after Emancipation. A great migration north of the formerly enslaved brought with it convulsive changes in the organisation of cities, the shape of communities, and the practices of everyday life. In Wayward Lives, Beautiful Experiments: Intimate Histories of Riotous Black Girls, Troublesome Women and Queer Radicals (2019), Saidiya Hartman charts the nature of those changes, tracking African American women and queer radicals who were pathologised in their time period and reframing them as revolutionaries, the avant-garde of new ways of living in the early twentieth century.

“Wildness, Masculinity and Swimming Pools” with Jack Halberstam
How do you get from wild theory all the way to wild swimming? By taking a deep dive with Prof Jack Halberstam (Columbia University) of course! Jack takes us where the wild things crawl and on the way, we discuss masculinities, the creative powers of failure, our difficult relationships to non-human animals, nudity and queer bodies, queerness, colonialism and capitalism, and, naturally, our favourite swimming pools. We also dip into some great queer texts, including but by no means limited to: gay falconry novels, animation films, eco-critical writing and non-binary theory.Works by Jack mentioned:The Wild...

Quiver: New Weapons for Thought
Reading Group 5 - Becoming-Woman
On April 5th, Quiver will discuss “Becoming-Woman.” Rather than discuss the notorious section of A Thousand Plateaus on becoming-woman, we instead consider the woman as an escapee. Our conversation will begin with a portion of Hélène Cixous’s essay “The Laugh of the Medusa.” With it we consider the practice of writing, the insurgency of the feminine, and the practice of undoing the self. A selection on wayward lives from Saidiya Hartman’s “A Riot of Young Girls Assembled in a Riotous Manner” guides the second half of our discussion. In it, we speculate o...

History Against the Grain
The Knowledge Producers
"And how does one tell impossible stories?” A question well placed for our time, and one confronted by the scholar Saidiya Hartman, who has journeyed through the heart of darkness of slavery’s archives in search of Black lives past. Yet in their efforts to recover those stories, scholars like Hartman and professional historians compete in a broader marketplace of historical knowledge, where our public memories are fed, constructed, and often distorted by public memorials and statuary, patriotic commemorations and school namings, and even the archives themselves, only to serve patriotic narratives that erase the past lives and histories that...

Reading Group 2 - The Subject
On February 15th, Quiver convened its second reading group over Zoom. During that session, we explored the concept of “subjects.” We started with the infamous short excerpt on voluntary servitude and Reichian group fantasy from Anti-Oedipus. Then, we moved to the distinction between post-Althusserian social subjection and Mumford's machinic enslavement. Our conversation worked through political concepts of the subject, state, and capitalism. But we also wondered, how must we rethink D&G to confront the intolerable anti-blackness of this world. This led to a truly rhizome of ideas, texts, references and resonances... here...

On Beauty and Terror Part 2: Social Life as Science Fiction
Although our existence is shaped by this violence (of coloniality, of patriarchy, the violent normalisation of heterosexuality (heteronormativity), the rule of capital), we also exist outside of this; we are not only oppressed beings, our resilience and agency cannot be silenced, that is a further source of dispossession. Once again, we are ‘reckoning with the artistic expressions of the marginalised’ (McCarthy), we are looking at doing what Saidiya Hartman does when she, ‘[makes] productive sense of the gaps and silences in the archive of trans-Atlantic slavery that absent the voices of enslaved women’.

Fugitive Feminism, Towards A Fugitive Feminism
In 1851, Sojourner Truth delivered her now iconic speech ‘Ain't I a Woman?’ at the Women's Rights Convention in Akron, Ohio. Truth's speech is one of the earliest recorded instances of intersectionality.

A lamentation of slavery's legacy
Saidiya Hartman tells of her journey to Ghana to reckon with the lives undone by slavery in Lose Your Mother: A Journey Along the Atlantic Slave Route. Michelle Commander, University of Tennessee Assistant Professor of English and Africana, discusses the book in this podcast.
