Tiffany Lethabo King

Tiffany Lethabo King is associate professor of women’s, gender, and sexuality studies at Georgia State University, where her research is situated at intersections of slavery and Indigenous genocide in the Americas. Her book The Black Shoals: Offshore Formations of Black and Native Studies (Duke University Press, 2019) argues that scholarly traditions within Black studies that examine Indigenous genocide alongside slavery in the Americas have forged ethical and generative engagements with Native studies—and Native thought—that continue to reinvent the political imaginaries of abolition and decolonization. Her next project is tentatively entitled “Red and Black Alchemies of Flesh: Conjuring a Decolonial and Abolitionist Now.” icon
