AbstractThis paper is a tentative attempt to set out some of the basic points for articulating an alternative philosophical praxis derived from some Black women’s lives and experiences. It begins with an explanation of delegitimating processes and the importance of not dividing theory from practice. The essay offers six practices that outline the unique critical attitude that constitutes philosophical practices rooted in Black women’s lived experience and asks “How we sound” when doing academic philosophy.
