    Dr. Kucik's interdisciplinary research and courses explore the intersections of literature, genocide, race, and human rights violations, and her forthcoming book, The Black Blood of Genocide: Tracing Genocide in Post-Holocaust African Diasporic Literature, focuses on how Black populations have used the concept of genocide to write about anti-Black violence.
