Tonya Haynes is a PhD candidate at the Institute for Gender and Development Studies: Nita Barrow Unit. Her dissertation is entitled The Emergence of Gender Consciousness in the Twenty-first Century Caribbean: Mapping the Knowledge Economy of Gender.

Her creative work has been published in Anthurium: A Caribbean Studies Journal, published by the University of Miami, and The Caribbean Writer; and her essay entitled The Divine and The Demonic: Sylvia Wynter and Caribbean Feminist Thought Revisited is forthcoming in the edited collection Love and Power: Caribbean Discourses on Gender to be published by the UWI Press in 2011. Her research interests include: Caribbean radical thought, Caribbean feminisms and transnationalisms, gender and new media, Sexuality Studies and Men and Masculinity Studies.
