Canines: Enforcing Race & State
Two of the world’s greatest boxers—Muhammad Ali of Louisville, KY and George Foreman of Houston, TX—met for the legendary “Rumble in the Jungle” in Kinshasa, Zaire (now the Democratic Republic of Congo) in 1974. With concerts by the African American “Godfather of Soul” James Brown and South African singer-songwriter Miriam Makeba, nicknamed “Mama Africa,” the entwining tones of the U.S. civil rights era and anti-Apartheid movement augmented a cul…
Cattle, Chattel, and Capital: Animal Agency and the Alimentary Atlantic
During the first centuries of colonialism in the Caribbean, the choices of cattle influenced the establishment of European settlements, the creation of new legal regimes of enclosure, dietary fluctuations that changed perceptions of animal value, and ecological changes, both intended and unintended. The decisions made by livestock in the Caribbean reshaped island flora, attracted humans to follow herds into unknown interiors and set locations for…
Academic freedom and the unknown: Credibility, criticism, and inquiry among the professoriate
In the U.S., military and intelligence personnel, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), scholars, professional organizations, legislators, journalists, and others are requesting study of UFOs, recently renamed Unidentified Aerial/Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) by the U.S. government. Yet disinformation, misidentifications, hoaxes, and entertainment cloud the subject. Combined, these factors pertain to wider debates about the parame…
Faculty perceptions of unidentified aerial phenomena
Recently, former and current government officials, legislators, and faculty in the United States have called for research on what their government terms Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP, now called Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena). Investigative journalism, military reports, new government offices, and scholarship have piqued broad attention. Other countries have begun conversations about UAP. The United States government is undertaking new he…
The Haitians: A Decolonial History, by Jean Casimir
Prominent Haitian diplomat and writer Jean Casimir offers students and scholars of the Caribbean a corrective to some prevalent depictions of Haiti, beginning this book not with the early degradations of enslavement nor later narratives of incomplete modernity-ideas derived from Western normativity that have tended to occupy other texts.Also, rather than state or biographical focuses, he investigates the resilience and perspectives of those ensla…
Free Communities of Color and the Revolutionary Caribbean: Overturning, or Turning Back?
Slave Hounds and Abolition in the Americas
The lash and shackles remain two primary symbols of material degradation fixed in the historical memory of slavery in the Americas. Yet as recounted by states, abolitionists, travellers, and most importantly slaves themselves, perhaps the most terrifying and effective tool for disciplining black bodies and dominating their space was the dog. This article draws upon archival research and the published materials of former slaves, novelists, slave o…
Projections of Desire and Design in Early Modern Caribbean Maps
Iconic early European maps of the Caribbean depict neatly parcelled plantations, sugar mills, towns, and fortifications juxtaposed against untamed interiors sketched with runaway slaves and Indigenous toponyms. These extra-geographical symbols of racial and spatial meaning projected desire and design to powerful audiences. Abstractions about material life influenced colonial perceptions and actions upon a space, often to deleterious effects for t…
Key to the New World: A History of Early Colonial Cuba - editedby Martínez-Fernández, Luis
Networks, tastes, and labor in free communities of color: Transforming the revolutionary Caribbean
Scholarship on free people of color in the Caribbean during the Age of Revolutions has focused on themes of mobility and resilience, with emphasis on the few remarkable individuals who pursued their freedom and respectability in imperially visible registers. These themes sometimes mask as much as they reveal. Mobility ignores those individuals who remain in place in families and communities, and resilience elides efforts by some free people of co…

No One Who Reads the History of Hayti Can Doubt the Capacity of Colored Men: Racial Formation and Atlantic Rehabilitation in New York City's Early Black Press, 1827-1841
From 1827 to 1841 the black newspapers Freedom's Journal and the Colored American of New York City were venues for one of the first significant racial projects in the United States. To counter aspersions against their race, the editors of these publications renegotiated their community's identity within the matrix of the Black Atlantic away from waning discourses of a collective African past. First, Freedom's Journal used the Haitian Revolution t…
