How does your embodiment affect your perception and thus your writing? This is one of many questions Amber Jamilla Musser tackles in her most recent monograph, which builds on her brilliant work in Black feminism and queer femininity. Amber tells us how sensation and individual experience need to be part of an ethics of perception and why queerness is method that allows us to think capaciously and in connection with the body.

Questions you should be able to respond to after listening:
- What does Amber mean when she speaks about masochism?
- What might an ethics of perception be?
- Amber speaks about how our bodily histories affect how we perceive. What is you bodily history?
- Amber suggests that queerness is a method in Between Shadows and Noise. What does this method allow Amber to do?
- How is knowledge embodied? Do you think about this when you read or write academic texts, which often suggest a neutral, disembodied perspective?
