About the Book
The figure of the zombie carries a lot of metaphorical (and historical) weight. In this issue, our writers feast on the sociocultural meanings of the zombie. Topics include the Haitian roots of the zombie, zombie as a metaphor for grief, eco-feminism, drag queen zombies, gender ideals in the post-apocalypse, the politics of catastrophe, and zombie sexuality. This issue also contains an interview with Ashlee Blackwell and Tananarive Due, producers of the acclaimed documentary Horror Noire: A History of Black Horror.
