Ferguson, Aberrations in Black: Toward a Queer of Color Critique

A one-of-a-kind intervention into performance, religious, black and cultural studies. -- -Roderick A. Ferguson * Aberrations in Black: Toward a Queer of Color Critique * Crawley's prose is attentive, loving. It's round and sweet. It's generous in associations. Anecdotes and personal emails populate the book...In Blackpentecostal Breath, tales and anecdotes equip us with tools to decode the book;s argument while also allowing us to pause and breathe...Blackpentecostal Breath is a book of its time, but it's decidedly future-oriented. Breathing, after all, is sequential: each breath, however strained, carries the hope of another one, and another one. -- Jean-Thomas Tremblay * -Los Angeles Review of Books * Blackpentecostal Breath is a work of utter originality anchored by daring synthesis, acrobatic leaps of imagination, and laced throughout with passages of jolting beauty. -- -Ann Pellegrini * coauthor of Love the Sin: Sexual Regulation and the Limits of Religious Tolerance *
