The author speaks to intersectional truth-telling about race, gender, and violence grounded in care ethics, embodiment, and Black feminist methodology in this chapter. She focuses on the erasure and negation of state and sexual violence against Black women through tropes about their innate ability to endure violence. Exploring the ethnographic resources of poetry as a medium to express the totality of their experiences, the author and her interlocutors convey the complexities of sexual violence against Black women in an imperial, cis-heteropatriarchal state.
