My dissertation, "It's About Time We Got Off: Claiming a Politics of Pleasure in Black Feminist Theory" interrogates black feminist theory's historical scripting of black female sexuality as a site of ongoing racial and sexual trauma through the lens of a pleasure politic. It utilizes a diverse archive of contemporary black women's visual products and performance narratives from Kara Walker, Nicki Minaj, Beyonce and characters from the film the "Dancehall Queen" to highlight the ways black female artists deploy what I have termed critical acts of dislocation and affective assault through mechanisms of silhouette, alterity, fragmentation and avatar play in order to foster a pleasure politic. In doing so, their cultural products meticulously unstitch black women's erotic possibilities from previously theorized notions of embodiment, wholeness, temporality and, history that have been tightly sutured to a black feminist master narrative of sexuality largely organized by an abiding logic of racialized, sexualized violence and trauma. Pleasure politics subjects the canonical theories of black female sexuality to rigorous (re)interrogation and re(periodization) that accounts for the significant impacts of the digital age, mass mid-20th and 21st century black diasporic immigration and the new subjectivities that emerge from these distinct phenomena. In particular, it considers the impact of the Internet, black digital space and the digital age's dramatic restructuring of social spaces as one of the most significant and yet undertheorized factors impacting scholarly understandings of contemporary black women's identity and their engagements with pleasure and erotic expressions.
