Hip Hop Feminisms: Digital Black Feminisms – An Archive by Renina Jarmon

There has been a substantial amount of work created at the intersection of Digital Black Feminisms and Hip Hop Feminisms over the last five or so years. While finishing my book Black Girls Are From the Future: Essays on Race Digital Creativity and Pop Culture I realized that a lot of the contemporary and cutting edge work currently done at this intersection is happening on the internet (thank you to @zandria for pointing this out!)  I also realized that I have written nearly 30 blog posts written at this intersection.  Some of the work is awful and I am not proud of it, some of the work is awesome, in that I am pushing the limits on race, gender and sexuality in hip hop within the public sphere. There are also moments where it seemed as though I was writing to stay alive.

I decided to make the beginnings of an archive of this work so that this history isn’t obscured, lost or rendered irrelevant like so much of the work created by our Black feminist foremothers. My rationale is that in archiving our work, I archive theirs too, because we would not exist without the Black feminists and womanists who came before us. Please leave additional articles, blog posts that I may have missed in the comments section. #StakesIsHigh.
