My practice-based PhD explores the violence and death wrought by Empire in Caribbean history and the integral role of grief practices in Black cultural identity, to intervene in critical race theory and Black literary studies through an encounter between theory and the creative practice of writing a novel. The project takes up Christina Sharpe's model of 'wake work', through which Black people can restructure and resist the afterlives of slavery, and formulates it as both creative practice and critical strategy in order to ask new questions about the cultural specificities of grief. The research will draw on archival history and collaborative storytelling emerging from narrative interviews in order to reanimate a lost archive of Caribbean diasporic voices. Examining the relationship between the dead and the living, cultural identity and transnational heritage, the research will interrogate identity debates and develop anew aesthetic and critical understanding of mourning.

我的基于实践的博士学位探讨了加勒比海历史中帝国造成的暴力和死亡以及悲伤实践在黑人文化身份中的不可或缺的作用，通过理论与写作的创造性实践之间的相遇来干预批判种族理论和黑人文学研究。小说。该项目采用了克里斯蒂娜·夏普的“唤醒工作”模式，通过该模式黑人可以重组和抵抗奴隶制的来生，并将其制定为创造性实践和批判策略，以提出有关悲伤的文化特殊性的新问题。该研究将利用档案历史和叙事访谈中出现的协作讲故事，以复兴加勒比侨民声音的失落档案。该研究将审视死者与生者、文化身份和跨国遗产之间的关系，质疑身份争论，并对哀悼形成新的美学和批判性理解。
