摘要

摘要：1955年，玛米·蒂尔·布拉德利代表全国有色人种协进会（NAACP）在全国各地发表讲话，为她最近被谋杀的儿子埃米特·蒂尔伸张正义。虽然大多数学者关注的是布拉德利公开她儿子残废尸体的选择，但我分析的是她在全国有色人种协进会（naacp）赞助下的悲伤之旅，以及她随后与该组织的公开冲突。我将重点放在她试图为自己创造一个照顾和补偿的基础设施上，并提出了悲伤资本的概念，以展示黑人女性和机构如何基于黑人母亲悲伤的经济基础做出决定。

Grief Capital, Grief Activism: The Brief Life of Mamie Till Bradley's NAACP Tour

Abstract:

In 1955, Mamie Till Bradley spoke throughout the country on behalf of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) to bring justice to her recently murdered son, Emmett Till. While most scholarship focuses on Bradley's choice to publicize her son's mutilated body, I analyze her understudied NAACP-sponsored grief tour and her ensuing public fallout with the organization. Focusing on her attempts to create an infrastructure of care and compensation for herself, I forward the concept of grief capital to demonstrate how Black women and institutions make decisions based on the financial substrates of Black maternal grief.
