We might be able to get by: A feminist discussion of the academy, community, and compensation across generations

Aria Halliday, Ann duCille

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

This is an intergenerational conversation about the lived experiences of Black feminists—and less so about Black feminist theory (or its futures) per se. Specifically, the conversation bridges discourses on work–life ‘balance,' the undiagnosed/misdiagnosed/belatedly diagnosed conditions that lead to the (sometimes) premature death of Black women academics, and deciding when and with whom Black feminists archive their work and live in community.
