Abstract

This is a performative engagement with the theory and practice of Black girlhood. I begin with an excerpt from my play-in-process, crushed little stars, which is itself a meditation on the sad Black girl. I share this process of play not only to present play making as a powerful epistemological tool, but also to blur the boundaries between what constitutes theory as opposed to practice. I (re)imagine Black girl sociality as a site of restoration and healing against the racist, sexist, and ageist world with which Black girls are forced to contend. Accordingly, this project contributes to the diversification of girlhood studies, challenging the disciplinarity of the field by extending ethnographic and sociological perspectives to include the vantage point of performance and creative practice.

破碎的小星星

这是一个关于黑人少女时代理论和实践的表演。我以一段摘自我在游戏过程中被碾碎的小星星的片段开始，这本身就是对那个悲伤的黑人女孩的沉思。我分享这一游戏过程，不仅是为了将游戏制作作为一种强大的认识论工具呈现出来，也是为了模糊构成理论与实践之间的界限。我(重新)把黑人女孩的社交想象成一个修复和治愈黑人女孩被迫与之抗争的种族主义、性别歧视和年龄歧视世界的场所。因此，该项目有助于少女时代研究的多样化，通过扩展民族志和社会学的视角，包括表演和创造性实践的优势，挑战该领域的学科性。
