Will someone please provide biographical information to this resume? Where was she born? Who are/were her parents? Who were her ancestors? Has she spoken about the experiences that insired her research? What are her interests other than commenting on non-black people who have made careers out of looking or sounding "black" in the ways that mainstream America defines "black?" Where is a photo that can be added? Perhaps the one from her Northwestern University page?
