This is a powerful scholarly and creative work. It should find an interested and enthusiastic audience among academics, artists, and activists concerned with issues of aesthetic, ethical, and political import to the matter of black living and dying. This is a first-rate study of stories that both will and will not be heard but that must to be told, over and over again. --Jared Sexton, author of Black Masculinity and the Cinema of Policing Impossible Stories is clever and provocative. Murillo effectively stages a set of conversations between and among physics, literary production, and African American studies and in doing so does the impossible work of telling the impossible story of artistic creation in the context of trenchant anti-Black racism. --GerShun Avilez, author of Radical Aesthetics and Modern Black Nationalism
