Specializations:

Formally, i received the PhD in african american literature focusing on interracialism, Richard Wright and William Faulkner. I engage in critical race theory and literary theory. My pedagogical style explores the roots of contemporary sexual violence, and of resistance to it, in American slavery and the life and work of Harriet Jacobs.
