Colloquium
"Imaginaries of Black Masculinity in the Long Crisis of Racial Capitalism"
Jordanna Matlon is an assistant professor at American University's School of International Service. Her research examines racial capitalism in Africa and the African diaspora, and the ways “blackness” as a signifier – and in its intersection with gender, class, and national identity – illuminates our understanding of popular culture, postcoloniality and neoliberalism in the contemporary city.
