An expert deconstruction of how Blackness has been presented in culture from the beginning of the twentieth century until the present day. -- Jessica White * i-D *

Grounded in theory (from Edouard Glissant to Donna Haraway) but a fast, percussive read, [Glitch Feminism] is also a guide to the growing field of art practices-notably driven by Black and queer creators-that dissolve the boundary between 'internet art' and physical performance, activism and community-building. -- Siddhartha Mitter * New York Times [for Glitch Feminism] * A gorgeous document of a number of mostly Black trans, queer, and gender-nonconforming artists working today * Book Forum [for Glitch Feminism] * Offers wry insights into the opportunities inherent in the implications of formerly discarded traces of both ourselves and our culture. This fascinating, profound and engrossing book places Legacy Russell as one of the more provocative, radical and original thinkers of her generation -- Lynn Hershman Leeson * [for Glitch Feminism] * Takes us on a lightening tour through the terminologies and theories of AFK, IRL, Glitch Ghosts, Digital Dualism, Binary Bodies, and other markers in the current lingo of on-line criticism. She translates the Internet world as she lives it right now. Russell is an important writer to follow as she points out shifting viewpoints of Internet politics in real time -- RoseLee Goldberg, Director of Performa * [for Glitch Feminism] * A vital new manifesto and Russell's research as a curator breaks new ground on themes of gender, performance, digital selfdom, internet idolatry, and new-media ritual. -- Artnet News * [for Glitch Feminism] *
