She has conducted research in the U.S., U.K, and Jamaica along with exploratory investigations in Denmark, South Africa, and Cuba.

Regional & transnational networking of Black women human rights organizers in in various sites in the U.S. south. Focus on how the discourse and practice of human rights is being translated in the experiences of the multiracial constituencies targeted in this sociopolitical project; and how "human" rights are being interrogated and redefined from Black racialized gendered standpoint(s). I have followed this network since its preparation for the 2001 World Conference against Racism in Durban, SA.
An examination of the civic participation and claims of full citizenship among a small network of Afrocubanas, mainly writers involved in producing grounded/dirty/poor theory through their print and web-based interventions, expressed in blogs, e-magazines, and print publications that publicly reclaim the histories and lived experiences of Black women in Cuba. Focus is on citizenship from below expressed in transnational fields accessible via cyberspace in a context of a severe digital divide.
A retrospective interpretation and synthesis of more than 20 years of intermittent field and archival research done in Kingston, Jamaica.

Writing project bring retrospection to bear on current trends.
