Marronage was and is typified by maroons \u201ccultivating freedom on their own terms within a demarcated social space that allows for the enactment of subversive speech acts, gestures, and social practices antithetical to the ideals of marginalizing agents (Roberts 2015).<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Bearing this definition in mind, how might sound and music be investigated through the politic and framework of marronage, in the ways they \u201ccreate moments of sonic and emotional disruption, reflecting the quiet resilience and subversive practices of Maroons\u201d (Neal 2022). This session discusses sound as a Marronage space &#8211; alternate, subversive, personal, and communal, and how sonic practices embody forms of resistance and survival that is both historical and contemporary, challenging dominant narratives and sustaining Black cultural and political imagination.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Staff Profile: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.southampton.ac.uk\/people\/629g27\/doctor-kwame-phillips\">https:\/\/www.southampton.ac.uk\/people\/629g27\/doctor-kwame-phillips<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Personal Webpage: <a href=\"http:\/\/kwamephillips.com\/\">http:\/\/kwamephillips.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ibb.co\/ftrhQXg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ibb.co\/XpFhVWQ\/Bass-Tyshan-Wright-photo-by-Steve-Farmer.jpg\" alt=\"Bass-Tyshan-Wright-photo-by-Steve-Farmer\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/ibb.co\/jGdfPv6\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ibb.co\/82JsLDK\/Tyshan-Wright-Rackla.jpg\" alt=\"Tyshan-Wright-Rackla\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/ibb.co\/M6RfH0B\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ibb.co\/yS8pCj4\/Tyshan-Wright-Cimarron-photo-by-Steve-Farmer.jpg\" alt=\"Tyshan-Wright-Cimarron-photo-by-Steve-Farmer\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PhD Seminar Series, 5 December 2024 In this week&#8217;s seminar, Dr Kwame Phillips will be sharing his research on sound and social practice: &#8216;Maroon communities were those settlements established by runaway slaves, who sought to escape their condition as fungible, accumulated property.
