Darlène Dubuisson is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Anthropology at the University of Pittsburgh, affiliated with the Kenneth P. Dietrich School of Arts and Sciences and the Gender, Sexuality, & Women's Studies Program. She holds a Ph.D. from Columbia University (2020) and specializes in political and legal anthropology with a focus on Black radicalism, migration, and futurity studies.
Her research examines Haitian intellectual exile, diaspora return movements, and anti-black immigration practices in Latin America. Her recent book Reclaiming Haiti’s Futures (2024) explores how returned scholars create place and resist displacement through improvisation and radical imagination. Current projects investigate Black transit migrants in Mexico and anti-black governmentality in immigration policies.
Teaching highlights include courses on crises and futures in the Anthropocene, Black feminist ethnographies, and decolonial anthropology. Her work bridges speculative fiction, ethnography, and activism, addressing themes of displacement, home, and Black futurity. Collaborations include studies on race and low-wage immigrant labor with scholars at Cornell University.
