Phylon: The Clark Atlanta University Review of Race and Culture

(ISSN 0031-8906)

Welcome to Phylon, the peer-reviewed journal that W.E.B. Du Bois founded at Atlanta University in 1940. Phylon has moved from a quarterly to a semi-annual publication and each issue will be defined by a special topic of general interest to faculty in the humanities and social sciences. With each volume we will encourage joint authorship by academics from various disciplines so that not only is the theme of the article presented, but it will be discussed in a Du Boisian interdisciplinary fashion taking into account historical, political and socio-economic interpretations. We believe that it is time to recognize that many of us in nominally separate fields and disciplines are working on the same problem from slightly different angles.

The full text version of Phylon is only available to users within Atlanta University Center. Individuals outside of the Atlanta University Center may contact the editor-in-chief, Dr. Obie Clayton (oclayton@cau.edu), for subscription access options.

Spelman College

Aunt Chloe

Aunt Chloe is an artistic response to an absence of truth—to any void in the representation of our narratives. Historically grounded in artist-activism, Aunt Chloe is situated at the crux of every social justice movement—bound by its mission to reclaim the time and space that Black women have been denied. What began as a Spelman College literary magazine titled Focus (published from the 1960’s until 2008) metamorphosed into Aunt Chloe: A Journal of Artful Candor in 2009, when its editor-in-chief, Kyla Marshell, conjured the legacies of two Black women named Chloe: the character Aunt Chloe in Frances Ellen Watkins Harper’s 1872 poem, “Aunt Chloe’s Politics,” and Chloe Anthony Wofford (born Chloe Ardelia Wofford), otherwise known as Toni Morrison. Kyla renamed the journal in tribute to them—inspired by 2007 Focus editor-in-chief Chantal James’s suggestion that its new name be that of a woman and also include “Aunt” (an honorific title for elders who nurture and guide us). Chloe means “green shoot” or “blossoming,” as Kyla discovered. With the journal evolving in an online format, those connotations again seem particularly relevant. Aunt Chloe continues to blossom. We are excited to further the vision of the editors and contributors who curated the journal before us, as we continue to claim and enlarge the spaces within which to create and narrate, in particular, Black women’s lives.

Continuum

Continuum highlights research that affects black women and black women’s contributions to research. As an interdisciplinary journal, Continuum encourages readers to think critically about the intersection between scholarship and black women’s experiences across the diaspora. The publication prepares undergraduate students for graduate studies by encouraging them to develop a passion for research. We are a platform for students around the world to use scholarship to initiate dialogue across disciplines and bring research to the forefront of the collegiate experience.
