Abstract:
When black women enter public space acts of retrieval and reproduction are possible. R&B singer and performer Erykah Badu took as her public space Dealy Plaza in Dallas, Texas. In her "Window Seat" music video Badu follows the route of JFK's motorcade, bridging together history and geography while also making visible black women's ambulatory actions.
