"In Black, Quare, and Then to Where jennifer susanne leath explores the relationship between Afrodiasporic theories of justice and Black sexual ethics through a womanist engagement with Ma'at-the ancient Egyptian deity of justice and truth. Ma'at took into account the historical and cultural context of each human's life, thus encompassing nuances of politics, race, gender, and sexuality. Arguing that Ma'at should serve as a foundation for reconfiguring Black sexual ethics, leath applies ancient Egyptian moral codes to quare ethics of the erotic, expanding what relationships and democratic practices might look like from a contemporary Ma'atian perspective. She also draws on Pan-Africanism and examines the work of Alice Walker, E. Patrick Johnson, Cheikh Anta Diop, Sylvia Wynter, Sun Ra, and others. She shows that together, these thinkers and traditions inform and expand the possibilities of Ma'atian justice with respect to Black sexual experiences. As a moral force, leath contends, Ma'at opens new possibilities for mapping ethical frameworks to understand, redefine, and imagine justices in the United States"--

Recenzijas

Shaped by a quare-womanist-vindicationist lens, jennifer susanne leath gives us a vision of justice-both old and new-centered in a deep, complex, and genre-shattering Black sexual ethics that is seething with justices that affirm our being and personhood. This exciting must-read offers us a new and more inclusive vision of a future for all. - Emilie M. Townes, E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter University Distinguished Professor of Womanist Ethics and Society and Gender and Sexuality Studies, Vanderbilt University Carving out a new pathway for grappling with the Du Boisian Negro problem and the perennial crisis of American democracy, Black, Quare, and Then to Where offers a creative, compelling, and stunning exploration into how Pan-Africanism and Black nationalism lay the epistemic groundwork for building a new Black sexual ethics. I dont know of any other womanists, feminists, or ethicists since Black Power who frame justice as broadly as jennifer susanne leath does in this powerful book. - Terrence L. Johnson, author of (We Testify with Our Lives: How Religion Transformed Radical Thought from Black Power to Black Lives Matter)
