Stefano Harney

Stefano Harney is an American activist and scholar. Prior to relocating to Brazil,[1] Harney taught at Singapore Management University, but was dismissed in part for awarding all his students A grades.[2][3][4] Since then, he has taught at Royal Holloway, University of London[5] as well as at the European Graduate School.[6][7]

He is a long-time collaborator with the 2020 MacArthur Fellows Program poet and scholar Fred Moten, as well as the scholar and current Barbadian ambassador to Brazil Tonika Sealy-Thompson.

Education

In 1985, Harney received a BA in English and American Literature and Language from Harvard University. In 1988, he received a MA in American Studies from New York University. In 1993, he received a PhD from the Faculty of Social and Political Sciences at the University of Cambridge.[6]

Collaboration With Fred Moten

Harney co-authored The Undercommons: Fugitive Planning & Black Study with Fred Moten (Autonomedia/Minor Compositions, 2013).[8] The text is a book-length series of essays that critiques the academy through a black radical lens.[9] Moten and Harney have been friends for over 30 years and collaborators over 15 years; they frequently appear together at panels, interviews, and academic talks.[4][10] The two are currently preparing for the publication of their second book together, All Incomplete, forthcoming from Autonomedia in 2021.[1][5]
