This is Ashley Newby and you’re listening to The Black Studies podcast, a Mellon grant sponsored series of conversations examining the history of the field. Our conversations engage with a wide range of activists and scholars - senior figures in the field, late doctoral students, and everyone in between, culture workers, and political organizers - in order to explore the cultural and political meaning of Black Studies as an area of inquiry and its critical methods.
Today’s conversation is with Dominick Quinney, who teaches in the Department of Ethnic Studies at Albion College in Albion, Michigan. In this discussion, we explore the origins of his interest in the field, relations of research and pedagogy, and the relationship between the study of Black life and the future of disciplines, area studies, and the transformative meaning of education.
