The article presents a decolonial and intersectional approach to production and reception of The Motherload music video (2014) in the context of heavy metal culture and how female Black bodies are displayed in media culture. We discuss the feminist dichotomic approach on the objectification of female bodies and the defence of Black female empowerment in the performances recorded. Our debate focuses on racial and sexual hierarchies in the metal music scene and in The Motherload music video, using the female Black body as a means of gaining visibility and adherence to this scene where women are often sexually objectified in its social dynamics.

'这给了我一个Mastodong':对Mastodon的The Motherload音乐视频中的黑人twerking舞者进行殖民地分析

本文介绍了在重金属文化背景下如何制作和接收The Motherload音乐视频(2014)以及如何在媒体文化中展示女性黑体的非殖民化和交叉性方法。我们在记录的表演中讨论了关于女性身体客观化的女权主义二分法和对黑人女性赋权的辩护。我们的辩论着重于金属音乐场景和The Motherload音乐视频中的种族和性等级,使用女性黑体作为获得可见性和坚持性的手段,在这个场景中,女性经常在社交活动中成为性对象。
