Karina Vernon

Karina Vernon is Associate Professor of English at the University of Toronto Scarborough where she researches and teaches in the areas of Canadian and Black Canadian literature, Black aesthetics, archives, critical pedagogy, and Black-Indigenous solidarities. She is editor of The Black Prairie Archives: An Anthology, published by Wilfrid Laurier University Press in 2020 and a companion volume, Critical Readings in the Black Prairie Archives, which is forthcoming. She is at work on a five-year SSHRC-funded project “Black Art and the Aesthetics of Spatial Justice,” which seeks to understand how mid-century urban renewal projects that destroyed inner-city Black neighbourhoods across North America gave rise to a new Black literary aesthetic. With Winfried Siemerling (UWaterloo) she is working on a SSHRC-funded book project on the politics and aesthetics of relation of Black Canadian cultural achievement, including writing, music, film, and visual art.
