Jenn M. Jackson in The Black Writer's Studio

Jenn M. Jackson (they/them) is a genderflux androgynous Black woman, a lesbian, an abolitionist, a lover of all Black people, and an Assistant Professor at Syracuse University in the Department of Political Science. Jackson’s primary research is in Black Politics with a focus on racial threat and trauma, gender and sexuality, political behavior, and social movements. Jackson also holds affiliate positions in African American Studies, Women’s and Gender Studies, and LGBT Studies. They are a Senior Research Associate at The Campbell Public Affairs Institute at the Maxwell School at Syracuse University, as well. Jackson is the author of the book BLACK WOMEN TAUGHT US (Random House Press, 2024). The book is an intimate intellectual and political history of Black women’s activism, movement organizing, and philosophical work that explores how women from Harriet Jacobs to Audre Lorde to the members of the Combahee River Collective, among others, have for centuries taught us how to fight for justice and radically reimagine a more just world for us all. Jackson’s first academic book project POLICING BLACKNESS (University of Chicago Press, 2024) investigates the role of racial threat in influencing Black Americans’ political behavior. Methodologically, they utilize quantitative analyses of survey data and experiments as well as qualitative analysis of 100 in-depth interviews with young Black Americans ages 18 to 35 to investigate both intergroup and intragroup differences in responses to and ideas about racial threat. Jackson finds that Black women are most likely to express concerns about police-based and intragroup threat. Comparatively, Black men vary drastically in their responses to threat depending on their sexual orientation, gender expression, and vulnerability to stereotypes. As a recipient of many prestigious honors and awards, Jackson is a 2020 recipient of the Tenth Decade grant and the CUSE Seed Grant funding their book research. ------- The Hurston/Wright Foundation presents The Black Writer’s Studio, a podcast dedicated to showcasing Black Writers who are transforming the world today with their literary pen.
