In my work, I examine race, childhood, and ableism at their historical, cultural, and epistemic intersections. My first book,听聽(NYU Press, 2024), identifies modern childhood鈥檚 developmental schema鈥攆rom child to Man鈥攁s key to naturalizing white patriarchal power, ableism, and race across the nineteenth century. Rethinking the common sense of children鈥檚 innate dependence by identifying each system鈥檚 historical dependence聽upon聽children, this book also tests another common sense: that black children have historically been excluded from childhood. Demonstrating white Americans鈥� immense possessive investment in black children鈥檚 labor and cultural production, this book recenters the history of American childhood around the question of black children鈥檚 value. My related research and writing on childhood, race, and disability have appeared in聽Disability Studies Quarterly,听Early American Literature, and聽American Quarterly. I teach on a range of topics in black studies, African American and Indigenous literatures, children鈥檚 literature, performance studies, disability studies, interdisciplinary research methods, and archival theory.
