Hybrid Symposium: "Words Walking Without Masters": Conversations on the Creative-Theoretical

​

CORNELL UNIVERSITY | April 21-22, 2022

 

We are a group of graduate students at Cornell University who decided to activate the creative-theoretical framework, as theorized by Professor Carole Boyce Davies, and to advance it as a critical area of creative intellectual praxis. In this regard, we recognize the creative-theoretical as both the subject of Black women’s living and the methodology they enact to assert the fullness of their humanity. The creative-theoretical refuses the assertion that theory isn’t generative and that creative work isn’t critical. It is a diasporic conversation, one that has been carried across Black feminist thought for generations. It is a reading across space and time, and an inherent recognition that our prevailing methods of knowing are insufficient for approaching the depths of Black being.
