This week’s episode titled “I Saw Things I Imagined”, is a solo episode and we talk about pornography, feminism, agency , fantasy, and MUCH MORE!
We are looking at Mireille Miller-Young’s work A Taste for Brown Sugar where she positions erotic sovereignty as that which reterritorializes the always already exploitable Black woman’s body. We find in this text that sex serves as a site for thinking different, a site for thinking possibility in the space of oppression. When thinking sex and the Black woman, gender and race intersects with history in a highly specific way that provides Miller-Young a site for challenging how we come to know, come to embody, and come to live through oppression and liberation. Sex is a tool used in Black feminism for looking at politics, policy, class, resistance, refusal, pleasure, respectability, racism, and many other popular theories in Black feminisms. What are the limits of our fantasies? How can we expand them to achieve pleasure? Listen to my thoughts and responses to these and other questions on this weeks episode of Bwitch, Please! The Podcast.
