Anti‐Blackness, Canonicity, and (Mis‐)Identification in Emine Sevgi Özdamar's Ein von Schatten begrenzter Raum

The German Quarterly, Volume 98, Issue 2, Page 91-108, Spring 2025.
Abstract This essay explores the disturbing presence of anti‐Black language and tropes in Emine Sevgi Özdamar's recent, celebrated novel Ein von Schatten begrenzter Raum. Drawing on Toni Morrison's classic analysis in Playing in the Dark, I argue Özdamar's anti‐Blackness is characterized by a double‐valence: on one hand, Özdamar's anti‐Blackness ...

A (Mid)journey Through Reality: Assessing Accuracy, Impostor Bias, and Automation Bias in Human Detection of AI‐Generated Images

Human Behavior and Emerging Technologies, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
While the challenge of distinguishing AI‐generated from real images is widely acknowledged, the specific cognitive biases that systematically shape human judgment in this domain remain poorly understood. It is particularly unclear how a general awareness of AI capabilities fosters novel biases, like a pervasive skepticism (“impostor bias”), and how ...
