Revisiting the Elegy in the Black Lives Matter Era is an edited
collection of critical essays and poetry that investigates
contemporary elegy within the black diaspora. Scores of
contemporary writers have turned to elegiac poetry and prose in
order to militate against the white supremacist logic that has led
to recent deaths of unarmed black men, women, and children. This
volume combines scholarly and creative understandings of the elegy
in order to discern how mourning feeds our political awareness in
this dystopian time as writers attempt to see, hear, and say
something in relation to the bodies of the dead as well as to
living readers. Moreover, this book provides a model for how to
productively interweave theoretical and deeply personal accounts to
encourage discussions about art and activism that transgress
disciplinary boundaries, as well as lines of race, gender, class,
and nation.
