Black Literary and Cultural Expression offers a forum for the critical exploration of global Black creative expressions through a multidisciplinary lens, critically analyzing their provenance, genres, aesthetics, intersections, and circulation modes.

This series aims to bring together creative Black expressions from historical and contemporary perspectives, and through multidisciplinary lenses. The peer-reviewed works in these series will critically analyze the sources, formational patterns, and the circulation of these Black literary and cultural expressions. In aggregating the dynamics of African creative expressions, this series will analyze, anticipate, and shape emerging discourses on Black culture as they appear. Black Literary and Cultural Expression will feature monographs from scholars globally, and we expect outstanding research in all aspects of creative practices of Black cultures globally.

Monographs and themed volumes we anticipate include perspectives that engage varied methodologies such as ethnography, textual analysis, historical analysis, philosophical critique, and other ground-breaking formats that reflect the new ways Black cultures are engaging the world and advance the scope of study across multiple disciplines. Authors are hereby invited to submit proposals and/or full manuscripts to the series editors.
