This manuscript thinks with Harriet Jacobs; I am concerned with the otherwise worlds, the productions of Black Joy that Black people devise while in the crawlspace, understood here as higher education contexts. Whereas the condition of Black life is in an antagonistic relationship with society, I ask, what is the sound, look, and feeling of Black Joy? Unspeakable joy, or what I define as the praxes of interior elaboration, cramped creation, and otherwise imagining, are loopholes for Black people to extricate the self from untenable antagonisms and harboring spaces to plot, envision, and realize fuller lives on their terms.

难以言表的喜悦：反黑人的束缚、退却的漏洞与黑人喜悦的实践

这份手稿与哈里特·雅各布斯一起思考；我关心的是另一个世界，即黑人在狭小的空间中设计的《黑色欢乐》的作品，这里被理解为高等教育背景。鉴于黑人的生活状况与社会处于对立关系，我问，《黑人欢乐》的声音、外观和感觉是什么？难以言喻的喜悦，或者我所定义的内心阐述、狭窄的创作和其他想象的实践，是黑人将自我从难以维持的对抗中解脱出来的漏洞，也是黑人按照自己的方式策划、想象和实现更充实生活的空间。
