Today’s conversation is with Chelsea Mikael Frazier, who teaches in the Department of English at Cornell University. Along with scholarly essays and critical pieces, she is completing a manuscript that assembles a Black feminist ecology drawn from Black women’s art, activism, and storytelling. She also hosts and directs the educational consultation platform Ask An Amazon. In this conversation, we discuss the place of ecological and environmental questions in the field of Black Studies, Black feminist innovations in the field, and the urgent political questions in the study of Black life in the twenty-first century.
