Current research
Holly-Gale is a Cultural Historian. Her specific interest is in Intersectional Identity Cultures, socially displayed or performed.
Her research has and continues to be in popular culture, space and structures in the urban and popular culture – especially television. Theoretically, she works with Intersectionality; Cultural Theory; Critical Race Theory, Theories of the Gothic (especially as they relate to Science Fiction) and the deliberations of the Anthropocene.
Other research interests include the post-colonial, visual cultures, assemblages using queer theory, African-Caribbean performance cultures, late Victorian and Edwardian cultures, Pan Africanism and the Harlem Renaissance, heritage studies and oral histories, and social critique in popular culture.
She is currently doing research on African-Caribbean immigrant culture and working with my community to return this culture, their music, and their arts heritage to schools, with a decolonising agenda and via public engagement.
