Marquis Bay will discuss his new book "Them Goon Rules: Essays on Radical Black Feminism" (due out February 2019), which reads like a critical memoir and queries the function and implications of politicizing Blackness, Black feminism, and queerness. "Them Goon Rules" binds together his personal experiences with social justice work at the New York-based Audre Lorde project, growing up in Philly, and rigorous explorations of the iconoclasm of theorists of Black studies and Black feminism.
