Sarah Haughn is a writer and PhD candidate in Performance Studies
with designated emphases in Studies in Practice and Performance
and African and African American Studies. Her research considers
how processes of birth and gestation as grappled with in the
literature of Black writers elucidate the violence operative in
western metaphysics’ recurrent use of gestational language to
explain being. Scholarly interests include critical black
studies, philosophy of antagonism, gender theory, science and
technology studies, and poetics.
