Diana Mafe’s current research focuses on representations of race and gender in speculative fiction and video games, and this talk specifically takes a critical look at the representation, or lack of representation, of black women in speculative film and television.
Diana Adesola Mafe is an associate professor of English at Denison University, where she teaches courses in postcolonial, gender, and black studies. Her work tracks the literary and cinematic roles of and for women of color in African and American discourses. Her current research focuses on representations of race and gender in speculative fiction and video games. She has published articles in African American Review, The Journal of Popular Culture, Research in African Literatures, American Drama, English Academy Review, Frontiers, Safundi, Camera Obscura, and African Women Writing Resistance. Her book Mixed Race Stereotypes in South African and American Literature: Coloring Outside the (Black and White) Lines (Palgrave Macmillan, 2013) examines the trope of the “tragic mulatto” from a transnational perspective.
