    Dr. Felice Blake

    On this episode of Efemeral, we discuss themes in Black literature with Dr. Felice Blake, Black studies and gender & sexuality professor at the University of California, Santa Barbara. Blake discusses the tropes of Black intimacy, incarceration, and intra-racial degradation as explored in her published novels, Black Love, Black Hate: Intimate Antagonisms in African American Literature and Antiracism Inc.: Why the Way We Talk about Racial Justice Matters. Blake details her own experience as a scholar during the L.A. Riots and unravels the institutional systems from which Black Lives Matter came about, connecting abolitionist movements to themes of segregation amplified by the prison industrial system.
