The first edition of Black Joy Archive was created in the summer of 2020 — an urgent call amidst the global racial reckoning of 2020; asking contributors to reflect on their past histories, stories and personal archives. The second volume of this project was released the summer of 2022, contributors then reflecting on what their “Black joy” meant to them now; entrenched in a consumer American landscape that has transformed this term into low-hanging fruit easily co-opted to signal performative allyship. The third volume of this project is simple:
how will your black joy persevere into our future unknown?
Editor(s): Zoe Pulley.
