Abstract
- McKittrick exhibits "other stories" ahead of the letter addressed to science, which I read as a strategy to combat science's othering of stories. The book closes with a letter to "science" that personifies science and exemplifies McKittrick's attempts to actualize the liberation of black livingness from its dehumanizing systems. I Dear Science and Other Stories i makes an obvious contribution to Black Studies, which is McKittrick's primary audience. [Extracted from the article]
