Digital homeplace: a letter on Black feminist performance and becoming
Abstract
This letter positions the digital realm as a Black feminist homeplace: a space of survival, joy, and (re)imagination. Digital homeplaces function as interventions that resist erasure, craft belonging, and generate archives of becoming. The footnotes operate as a parallel performance, directing readers to engage critically with the embodied dimensions of Black feminist praxis. While digital homeplaces carry these risks they also sustain autonomy, offering possibilities that traditional academic and performance venues often constrain. By framing digital Black feminist practice as a response to these shifts, this letter lingers in tension as the very condition of Black feminist digital life.
