Aisha Durham is a cultural studies scholar. Her research about Black popular culture explores the relationship between media representations and everyday life.

She examines how controlling images or power-laden stereotypes are produced by media makers and interpreted by media audiences to make sense of blackness in the “post” era. Durham uses auto/ethnography, performance writing, and intersectional approaches honed in Black feminist cultural criticism to analyze representations of Black womanhood in hip hop media. This scholarship contributes to an interdisciplinary field called hip hop feminism. Durham’s cultural criticism has been featured on popular Black and feminist sites, such as Crunk Feminist Collective, Ms. Magazine, and NewBlackMan
