His research is informed by critical race theory, feminism, colonial discourse theory, and post-structuralism.
He has written widely on post-millennial post-apartheid South Africa’s political economy, and remains interested in broader issues of justice, freedom, and equality. Most recently he taught courses on colonial discourse theory and postcolonial culture in the Department of Visual Culture at the University of Pretoria.
He has supervised graduate work on the representation of women politicians in South African media, the figuration of subjectivity in contemporary critical theory, and most recently, an analysis of the relationship between national sovereignty and supra-national organisations in the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa. His work has appeared in the Mail & Guardian, The Journal of Commonwealth Literature, The Funambulist Magazine (Paris), Women Writing Africa (Feminist Press and CUNY), Cuba Counterpoints, The Johannesburg Review of Books and English in Africa.
