Biography

Jeremy Laughery (he/they) is a first-year MA in Film Studies student at the University of Iowa, where he also teaches introductory Rhetoric courses in the Department of Rhetoric. His research interests are varied, ranging from an interest in the intersection between Afrospeculation and filmic genre conventions to the ontological nature and narrative function of the found footage and mockumentary formats in the horror film genre. His most recent book chapter on Afrospeculation, queer embodiment, and political resistance in Neptune Frost will be published this fall in Introduction to Afrofuturism: A Mixtape in Black Literature & Arts.
