Black Body Studies uses a multidisciplinary approach bringing literature, ethnography, sociological, and historical texts into conversation, in order to explore how the Black body is related to: the question of humanity, violence and anti-Black racism, religion and spirituality, reproductive rights and justice, biopolitics, disabled/abled bodies, and fat phobia.
