Resumo"Writing Black Beauty" argues that contemporary black feminist theory is marked by a new form of writing—beautiful writing—that makes visible the centrality of loss to theorizing black female subjectivity. Drawing on work by Christina Sharpe and Nicole Fleetwood, the article contends that a commitment to the beautiful is marked by an attachment to ethics of risk and disclosure and to practices of nonlinearity, resonance, and echo.
