Abstract: This article explores how Kiese Laymon's Long Division reimagines the legacy of Southern hip-hop, particularly the disruptiveness of OutKast, through the characters of City and LaVander. Framing the novel's "Can You Use That Word in a Sentence" contest as a metaphorical Source Awards, the essay argues that Laymon uses OutKast's radical duality in Aquemini to construct divergent Black masculinities and rhetorical strategies of resistance. Through parrhesia, code-meshing, and cultural symbolism—waves, Rocawear, southern vernacular—the novel critiques racialized educational spaces and r

Abstract:
Abstract It is tempting to attribute state violence to the imposition of a normative order, and it is tempting to construct an opposition between sanctifying that order and messianic interruptions of that order. This framework supposes that God, and the surrounding language of the sacred, follows the logic of rule, imposing a set of expectations on what is to be done enforced by threat of punishment. But what if we centre the story of Job in our account of the divine and with it an image of God as abuser rather than ruler, that is, God as only imposing the phantom of norms, norms that shift or

Abstract:
Ethnography has been used to reinscribe boundaries of power within academic disciplines. This essay uses Kiese Laymon’s conception of revision to wreck the genre to move sociology beyond the circular process of documenting disparities and offering quick solutions, toward understanding ethnography as a process of frustrating knowledge. It offers two points of entry for revision into the ethnographic process. (a) The shift to reflexivity within ethnography should not stop at naming our positionality, commitments, and relations. Rather revision demands an interrogation of the type of person we ar

Abstract:
This book analyzes twenty-first century African American fiction through the proliferation of post categories that arose in the new millennium. These post categories—post-black, post-racialism, post-Soul—articulate a shift away from the racial aesthetics associated with the Black Arts Movement and argue for the individual agency of Black artists over the meaning of racial identity in their work. Analyzing key works by Colson Whitehead, Alice Randall, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Paul Beatty, Jesmyn Ward, and Kiese Laymon, this book argues that twenty-first century African American fiction highlig

Abstract:
Today, as in the twentieth century, contemporary Mississippi writers dominate the literary field. Kiese Laymon, Jesmyn Ward, and Natasha Trethewey represent a current Mississippi Renaissance in counterpoint with this volume’s primary trio, Faulkner, Welty, and Wright. These writers interact in a crowded landscape of mutual hauntings as the presence of older texts hovers in the new. This essay considers the six writers' interactions through allusions that often work in reverse, to complicate the texts alluded to, to show us new ways to read that which we thought we had fully read before.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses a selection of contemporary ‘personal protest essays’ – often written by women – that employ the ‘mix of narration and reflection’ of the personal essay to explore ‘intersections between individual experience and structures of injustice’. Starting from an outline of the American context for the personal protest essay, Hopper then focuses on essays by Rebecca Solnit, Kiese Laymon, Chanel Miller and Seo-Young Chu. These essays belong to the subgenre of what is termed ‘everybody’s protest essay’, a mashup between the protest essay and the ‘confessional first-person’ form of

Abstract:
In this chapter, Shawn Anthony Christian explores how the friendship between James Baldwin and Beauford Delaney constituted an instance of Black artistic relation as genealogical transition, something deeper than “artistic influence” and more historically and culturally familial than simply a “transmission of ideas.” Baldwin’s public tributes to Delaney compel consideration of the enduring ways Black artists embrace and then exemplify shared values and aesthetics. Just as Baldwin “read” Delaney’s paintings and found in them both affirmation and challenge, especially for his own art, subsequent

This chapter places Jesmyn Ward’s Men We Reaped into critical conversation with Kiese Laymon’s, Heavy – two memoirs that it reads in relation to notions of Black death. With a voice like rage, Ward bears witness to the Black death, trauma, and grief that many Black Southerners experience under the scourge of white supremacy. In Men We Reaped, she chronicles the death and injustices of five Black men, including her brother, during a 5-year span. This chapter reads this text in order to show how we can begin to release the heavy repercussions of Black death and injustice in our communities by em

Round One explores works that use (and abuse) trivia to reveal how the hypermediated consumer culture of late capitalism traps individuals in a metaphorical isolation booth, unable to establish a stable sense of self. Just as the quiz-show scandals of the 1950s nearly killed the quiz show, works such as Quiz Show, Melvin and Howard,Slumdog Millionaire, and Chuck Barris’s “unauthorized autobiography” Confessions of a Dangerous Mind suggest that a rigged game presents an existential threat to the self.
