While I worked on this degree, I founded the Carleton Slam Poetry Collective, taught Hip Hop PE, participated in the African Student Alliance, and sat on and advised on several student and alumni boards. In my thesis (final academic project), I posited and argued that three Tragic Mulatta tales, Passing and Quicksand by Nella Larsen, and Plum Bun by Jessie R Fauset, are Heroic Mulatta tales. My main thesis was that through the publishing prowess and social salience of the Harlem Renaissance, a time of heightened artistic and social transgression and transformation, these stories leveraged the times, biographical and fictional narrative, and character de/construction to undermine the common tale that mixed-racedness is marginal and disempowered, and asserted that mixed-racedness by existence is transgressive, pervasive, and expansive.
