Since the death of George Perry Floyd, Jr. (1973–2020), the British Forum for Ethnomusicology has engaged in some intense corporate reflexivity. Since the appointment of the author and other new colleagues to a BFE EDI Working Group, the issues raised by Dr Danielle Brown’s open letter (2020) have led the author to the critical question of how the BFE can learn from the challenges faced by the Diversity Action Group within the Society for Ethnomusicology. Brown’s letter addressed issues that are both universally applicable throughout the English-speaking West but also peculiar to North America, not least by virtue of the fact that at this time of writing the author is not aware of any other b/Black members (active, silent or otherwise) of the BFE – and there are no b/Black academic musicians who are employed to teach this discipline in any of the UK’s tertiary institutions. These brief auto-ethnographic reflections situate the reflexive identity of the author as a black ethnomusicology researcher at the heart of questions and challenges faced in both British ethnomusicology and cognate disciplines, not least with regard to the challenge of how the legacy of modernity continues to shape the lived experienced of ethnic minority communities.

#BlackLivesMatter 时代的英国民族音乐学:一些(自动民族志)反思

抽象

自小乔治·佩里·弗洛伊德 (George Perry Floyd, Jr.) (1973-2020) 去世以来,英国民族音乐学论坛一直在进行一些强烈的企业反思。自从作者和其他新同事被任命为 BFE EDI 工作组以来,Danielle Brown 博士的公开信(2020 年)提出的问题使作者提出了一个关键问题,即 BFE 如何从多样性面临的挑战中学习民族音乐学协会内的行动小组。布朗的信所解决的问题既普遍适用于整个讲英语的西方,也适用于北美,尤其是因为在撰写本文时,作者不知道任何其他 b/Black 成员(活跃,BFE 的无声或其他)——并且在英国的任何高等教育机构中都没有受雇于教授这门学科的黑人/黑人学术音乐家。这些简短的自我民族志反思将作者作为黑人民族音乐学研究者的反思性身份置于英国民族音乐学和同源学科面临的问题和挑战的核心,尤其是关于现代性遗产如何继续塑造的挑战少数民族社区的生活经历。
