Hip Hop Studies and Queer Black Feminism presents a dynamic and much-needed fresh analysis of Black gendering and racialized sexualities in the sphere of Hip Hop. Editors Elaine B. Richardson, Gwendolyn D. Pough, and Treva B. Lindsey bring together established and rising scholars to examine the work of Hip Hop creators and practitioners, using the genre as a lens to address the crises of this historical moment, marked by attacks on bodily autonomy, LGBTQ+ rights, education, and Black studies. Tracing legacies of queer Black feminist activism and expression through Hip Hop culture and music, this timely anthology recenters queer Black feminism and cements its place in (Black) culture, liberation movements, and education.

Elaine B. Richardson (aka Dr. E) is a community-engaged scholar of Literacy Studies at The Ohio State University. She is a performing artist, writer, speaker, and survivor who has won many awards over the course of her inspirational life. Gwendolyn D. Pough is an award-winning professor of Women's and Gender Studies at Syracuse University. Her groundbreaking book Check It While I Wreck It: Black Womanhood, Hip-Hop Culture, and the Public Sphere was the first book on women in Hip Hop. Treva B.
