Berkeley Talks

Scholars on using fantasy to reimagine Blackness


Listen Later

A panel of scholars discusses UC Berkeley professor Darieck Scott's new book Keeping It Unreal: Black Queer Fantasy and Superhero Comics, which explores how fantasies of Black power and triumph in superhero comics and other genres create challenges to — and respite from — white supremacy and anti-Blackness.

Listen to the discussion and read a transcript on Berkeley News.
