The Politics of Black Joy: Zora Neale Hurston and Neo-Abolitionism
Lindsey Stewart
During the antebellum period, slave owners weaponized southern Black joy to argue for enslavement. In contrast, abolitionists wielded sorrow by emphasizing racial oppression. In The Politics of Black Joy, Lindsey Stewart wades into these uncomfortable waters by analysing Zora Neale Hurston's uses of the concept of Black southern joy.
