Black Women’s Sexuality Project Lit Review

I am doing a project on Black Womens Sexuality and here is the begining of my lit review.

I am focused on work written in the last 20 years, but historical works that changed the game must be used as well.

My goal is to use this information to work on the Doc that I mention that I am working on in my Bio. Luls.

I really need academic articles and films and fiction.

Please include recommendations in the comments and Thank you for helping me. *Cough* Moya & Jess.

I miss ya’ll. I expect to post soon.

Since I have been away I have had a birthday, had a lover hurt my feelings, learned that I really enjoy bbq chix snacks, became fully integrated in my google calendar, learned to conduct in depth oral interviews, realized that NO one messes with my Sunday nights, had a peer threaten to NARC on me to a professor, had another professor tell me to find EVERYTHING written about Back women’s sexuality since 1985, made hella amends after hurting a friend, threw myself into Ta’ing and practicing being engaged with my students, realized that I Love fall lightweight more than spring, learned that I Hate Bleek Gilliam because I am Bleek Gilliam, THAT I am really brave because a BOO thang READ the Vulnerable and fearless post on his phone while I sat next to him and I didn’t explode- in fact I felt alive, I refocused on my work,? I learned that while I am attracted to passionate people that basic human relationships skills are hot as well, I feel back from a relationship and let my heart desire it as well.

So yeah.

I been busy.

Looking forward to transcribing my second interview for this paper on Saturday and getting my face and ass grabbed this weekend. #fullmoonhoney.

Thanks to the advancement of medicine, as well as a better understanding of the human body. viagra price uk Here are some ideas percolating.

Black Voice Online– Where is Black voice online in the age of Obama. In fact, why were most of the bloggers invited to The White House gossip bloggers.

Food Stamps vs. Soda-@rafikam and I went back and forth about this on twitter.

A report on The Black Girl Project– @Superhussy’s awesome film screened in DC on the 25th.

On the Housewifization of Male Labor– Maria Mies argues that the unpaid caring work that women do subsidizes the male wage but capitalism as well (ix). ‘The construction of woman as mother, wife and housewife was the trick by which? 50% of human labour was defined as? free resource.”

Is Hip Hop Political?– People argue it is, others argue it isn’t. I went back and forth with Jay Smooth about it earlier this year.

Finish up the Nixonland Conversation?- We started reading Nixonland last summer. Perhaps we can finish it.

Anything else I haven’t written about other than #NWNW. Peace to @racialicious.

Real Spit. #Oakland

I am so Glad my mother is alive today.

Some shit went down in Oakland that I can’t get into and I think that much of the subtext of distress/anger I been feeling this week has to do with the fact that it is only by God’s grace that a bullet ain’t strike her.

That she is still alive.

As many of you know I was working on a proposal to study the impact of Crack on Oakland specifically but cities in general.

In one of my classes, one of my peers asked me the “so what” question.

The “so what” question is basically “who should give a fuck about the fact that you are doing this” question. It is reasonable. Right?

But peep game, this woman’s project was four condom. Meaning that she censored herself out of desire of be published.

People without heart need to stay out my face. #OnEverything.

Trust. I want to be published however, I am not gone compromise my heart to do it. I am the person that has to live with that shit every day, not anyone else.

And if I do compromise myself to do it, I ain’t gonna be up in people face ‘taumbout the “so what” question.

In class, a colleague spoke up for me, because I honestly was in shock and ain’t know what to say.

She said that my project has meaning for people who are interested in:

Why then, apart from the reason stated above, did she fail to tell you everything you cialis generika Click This Link need to know. Hefner believes, the American people voted this past November, 2008 with their online viagra slovak-republic.org hearts, minds and ballots for the next President of the United States and chose the young senator from Illinois, Barack Obama. The harder erection, the viagra sale better it is. Therefore, most medications for the disease merely relieve the burning and other symptoms and cannot actually cure the condition. cheap levitra Drug Reform

Violence? as a Public Health Issue

Drug Policy

Race, Gender and Drug Policy

Race and Public Policy

Modern US? City History

The Crack Epidemic and the Global Economy

Etc.

For me. Violence is a feminist project. Violence is a huge part of my work because so much of where I come from is marked by it.

My mother’s experience reminds me.

I am glad she is alive. I almost ain’t have my mother, and it kinda got me fucked up.

Thank you for reading.

#myadviserISogoingtoKickmyass


So I was in the library the other day, looking for a book,
and I came across Maria Meis’s Patriarchy and Accumulation

on a World Scale.

She got me open like a Black Moon tape.

I have been looking for ways to talk about the city + Black women + capitalism. But I didn’t have a framework. Still don’t. But I do I have
better idea of what I don’t want to talk about so that helps.

I use this title for this post because I don’t have time to be reading no unassigned work, so #myAdviserISgoingtokickmyass.

But this book does have me thinking about my dissertation, which is a ways off, however I have been a little troubled about my original idea (Women, Food, The City), which I will talk about in another post.

I have also decided on the topic for my interdiscp paper, on Black Womens Sexuality, more about that later too. So in some ways I feel like I got one duck lined up, gotta line one more up.

So here are some Maria Mies quotes that I found interesting:

On Technology + Job’s
Physical reasons like diabetes, hypertension, elevated cholesterol, smoking and corpulence are cialis 100mg tablets connected to erectile brokenness. Men suffering from artery buy line viagra disease or neural disorders leading to lost potency of achieving an erection. buy cialis pharmacy Of all the products Booster capsules and Mast Mood oil. What are the best foods to increase male libido? You can drink a buy cialis soft glass of the water.

Not only were millions of jobs destroyed by the introduction of these labour saving technologies, it also became clear that there would no longer be any substitute for these jobs in the future, and the full employment, hitherto the central demand of trade unions in the North, was becoming obsolete, and, even more disquieting, these new technologies began to undermine the very definition of ‘work’ in industrialized countries. Machines were now actually making human labour more redundant, not just for a while but for good, it seemed.

Machines were now actually making human labour more redundant, not just for a while but for good!!?!?!?!? Word.

Before you say to me well Renina, machines create more jobs.

Do machines create as many jobs as they destroy?

What happens when a society that defines people by their work, massively unemploys a huge portion of its people?

Surplus Human Capital?

Industrial Societies #dontnoNaan’

On Food + Class

People in industrialized societies have a particular difficulty in accepting the fact that food still comes out of the earth, that land therefor is the foundation of food production and security. [I hate the term food security by the way. RJ].? They are usually ready to accept that land is necessary? for ‘underdeveloped’ countries, but they do not see the need to be concerned about land in ‘developed’ societies. They are also reluctant to step out of their given mindset and dream of another economy. They fear to join a process, which is already underway, and contribute their own creativity and energy. They want security before they step out of their own house…

She had me rolling when I read this. Shit is true tho, “People in industrialized societies have a particular difficulty in accepting the fact that food still comes out of the earth” unless is synthetic.

So my adviser may not #kickmyass after all. She may in fact appreciate the fact that I am thinking about the Big D.

Thoughts?
