Demonic Grounds: Black Women And The Cartographies Of Struggle audiobook free
An extraordinary book. McKittrick illuminates the ways in which black women have navigated hostile terrain and enacted creative strategies of resistance and survival, as in the warping of the laws of physics in the work of Octavia Butler, producing black feminist geographies. McKittrick produces an invaluable contribution to black women\’s studies, black feminist studies, and studies of geography, space, and resistance. McKittrick\’s studies of the work of Harriet Jacobs, Butler, Dionne Brand and Sylvia Wynter are insightful and generative, and have had a profound effect on my own studies. Her analyses of Wynter\’s concept of \”demonic grounds\” are invaluable. This is a book for the ages. Will be required reading when I teach.

The kindle edition does not contain real page numbers and the footnotes are not searchable. Don\’t purchase the kindle edition and save yourself the headache! If you have the kindle, you have to look up the table of contents, find notes, toggle through each page (for example if you\’re in chapter 2), find the appropriate footnote. Want to return to the page you left off? Well, you have to go back to the table of contents, find the appropriate chapter, toggle through the pages, and find your exact spot.

Audiobook Demonic Grounds: Black Women And The Cartographies Of Struggle by Katherine McKittrick
After studying Urban Planning and then switching to Literature, I find myself continually concerned with the ways our spatial environment affects who we are. This interest made McKittrick\’s book a natural fit. Her careful attention to the ways that space, geography, and the ideas that shape Black women\’s existance all fit together to direct how they move about the world has changed the way I view every book I read. It is an academic book, and even after years of graduate school it required a careful, methodical reading, but it was well worth the effort for the amazing amount of information she packs into such a slender book. Any student/fan of African American history or literature will find themselves well rewarded for the effort of immersing themselves in McKittrick\’s particular genius.

Audio Demonic Grounds: Black Women And The Cartographies Of Struggle narrated by Machelle Williams
Oh my goodness, this book is brilliant. I am a geographer. I am also a geographer trying to bring black feminist theory into the discipline of geography. McKittrick\’s book is brilliant because it shows me what happens when black women\’s studies meets geography! This book is the antithesis to traditional geography books that always talk about conquest, colonialism, and imperialism from the perspective of the white male colonizer. This book asks what geography looks like— starting from Transatlantic slavery— in the eyes of the African/black female who, until recently, was never allowed in the academy to chart her cartographies of struggle.

Katherine McKittrick is brilliant and bold. Her interdisciplinary scholarship is in a league of its own.
