#arth987: I cannot help thinking after this week's reading and reflection about the mothers of Tyre Nichols, George Floyd, Trayvon Martin, Philando Castile, Emmett Till, and too many others. Their "brilliant and formidable labor of care" has been undergirded by violence and fear

#arth987: Calvin Warren writes that "anti-Black violence produces improper Black bodies, and such bodies cannot become the locus of humanist (onto-metaphysical) thinking of sexuality." How does this compare to #HortenseSpillers "severing of the captive body from its motive will"?

#arth987: reading #RebeccaVanDiver's writing on #ElizabethCatlett in light of the artist's recollections of her mother's multiple jobs + her print "I Have Always Worked Hard in America." Powerful testament to the labor and love of Black motherhood. https://t.co/qECUFZUeli

"The negation or disfigurement of maternity... 'turns the womb into a factory reproducing blackness as abjection and turning the birth canal into another domestic middle passage." - Sharpe in Hartman (169) #ARTH987

Really interested in Catlett's use of the Madonna to subvert and challenge negative stereotypes placed on Black mothers. #ARTH987

Reproductive Justice - a term that moves beyond reproductive rights and introduces race and class-based dimensions of motherhood. #ARTH987

Fellow #arthistory folks: how are you employing a de-imperialization approach in your teaching/research/writing? Are the strategies in A Questionnaire on Decolonization (2020) working for you? #arth987

How does stereotype become potentially problematic based on a satirical work's target audience? Why is stereotype an effective tool for black visual satire/what does it aim to accomplish that words alone cannot? #ARTH987

@AnniePoslusny I really enjoyed English's discussion of Marshall's preparatory sketches and perspective orthogonals. How do elements such as a viewers' vantage point and an emphasis on the painting's construction help to form its experimental think space? (ch 1) #arth987

Reading Nicole Fleetwood's "Marking Time," I found the discussion of how prison art can challenge the "inside" & "outside" logic of prisons (5) really important, related to idea of a "provisional public," too (25) #arth987

"'Commission' and 'negotiation' are fraught terms to describe arrangements in which [incarcerated] artists are asked by [prison employees] who hold enormous authority over their livelihood to make art in exchange for money, goods, or special treatment." #arth987

Why is it significant that Elizabeth Hamilton notes her working definition and the mechanism of Afrofuturism may not be one of optimism? How does Afrofuturist artwork challenge linear temporalities by bringing the past into conversation with the future? #ARTH987

Thinking about #Afrofuturism for grad seminar this week (reading Tobias Wofford, Elizabeth C. Hamilton, & Ian Bourland) & wondering how the concept might apply to art of the early 20th-century. #ARTH987 Jeff Donaldson, "Majority," 1977, watercolor & metallic paper on cardboard
