Foster's writing and research focus on ideas of place and emplacement,
on intersections between the visual and the written, and on mapping
the 20th- and 21st-century African Americas. In this lecture, Foster
will talk about her book-length manuscript of poetry, "AHotB," that
takes up Fanny Lou Hamer's idea that "a black women's body is never
hers alone." Register online. Tonya M. Foster is the author of the
poetry collection A Swarm of Bees in High Court and the bilingual
poetry chapbook La grammaire des os. She is coeditor of the essay
collection Third Mind: Creative Writing through Visual Art.
Forthcoming are a poetry chapbook, A History of the Bitch (AHOTB), and
the full-length collection Thingification. With the support of a
Creative Capital Award, Foster is also developing a multimedia,
multi-genre project titled Monkey Talk.
