At the Digital Humanities Center’s 2021 Open House, students, staff, and faculty across the Barnard community came together to contribute to a collaborative collage dedicated to the memory of Ntozake Shange. This collage was directly inspired by the “Octavia Butler” and “June Jordan” collages created by Barnard alum, Alexis Pauline Gumbs ‘04, as a part of her Black Feminist Breathing Chorus series. On December 2nd, the DHC invited community members to view the opening reception for the installation of these three collages.
This week we added zines about radical Barnumbia, a retired school librarian, filing for unemployment in pandemic times, an AFAB GenXer remembering expecting to grow up to be a man, translations of Ntozake Shange's poems, the program accompanying a Barnard alum's dance installation, quarantine times in Salt Lake City, frustrations with people who don't mask/vax, exercising for health rather than beauty, and coping with the long term impacts of rape.
The DHC's Associate Director, Alicia Peaker, spoke to the CEP about Black feminist approaches to the ecological impacts of the digital and digital environmental sustainability.
