cfp B(l)ack Futures - Flat Time in Black Performance

Dr. Nicole Hodges Persley and Dr. Baron Kelly are editing a special issue of De Gruyter Open/Open Cultural Studies.

This special issue plays against African American theater scholar Harry Elam’s discussion of playing the past in the present in the work of August Wilson (Elam 2005) and current discourses of new materialism and post-humanity to explore the specificity and malleability of time and futurity in Black performance.

The deadline for submission of proposals is 31 May 2017.
