Cattle, Chattel, and Capital
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…
Long Journey to Justice
Transatlantic Radicalism
Dispersing the Devil’s Stench
From approximately 1500 to 1650, English references to sulfur’s stench focused on sensory indications of hell, demons, and wickedness in worldly environments. Thereafter, most English references to the pungent rock turned proportionately to technics, medicine, and progress. The increasing presence of sulfuric miasma within secularizing applications for fumigations, gunpowder, and industry led to a limiting of the role of sulfur as a signifier of …

Race, nose, truth
It was in 1835, in the wake of the Nullification Crisis that shook the United States with the threat of civil war over federal law, state’s rights and the Slave Power, that Jerome Holgate, under the pseudonym ‘Oliver Bolokitten’, published his dystopian fiction A Sojourn in the City of Amalgamation. It posited the existence of an African body smell that would make anti-odour machines essential if American societies fell prey to the potential rava…
Cotton and Race across the Atlantic
Queer Mineralogy and the Depths of Hell
Levels of environmental apprehension are determined by how threatening embodied sensations deem ecological hazards. This may seem a simple categorization regarding human choice to participate in environmental activism. However, as energy conglomerates work to hide their malfeasance, modern selves rarely experience environmental decline through the five senses. The distances between the modern self and ecological hazards, both physical and discurs…
The Politics of Attack
The Smell of Slavery
In the Atlantic World, different groups were aromatically classified in opposition to other ethnic, gendered, and class assemblies due to an economic necessity that needed certain bodies to be defined as excremental, which culminated in the creation of a progressive tautology that linked Africa and waste through a conceptual hendiadys born of capitalist licentiousness. The African subject was defined as a scented object, appropriated as filthy to…

Making the Synthetic Epic
In late-nineteenth-century London, George Wilhelm Septimus Piesse drove perfume markets to find new wealth through a previously repressed English sense of smell. Piesse created a romantic fictional character, Mercutio Frangipani, to reinvigorate scenting into the English sensorium. Piesse fashioned his mythical hero Frangipani, a botanist who discovered the shoreline through his sense of smell on one of Columbus' voyages to the New World, to tie …

Her specific labor with the African Burial Ground Office of Public Education and Interpretation (OPEI) was essential to the mo…
Smelling-Out Anachronism
British colonial experiments within southern Africa worked to limit the influence of non-visual evidence used to prosecute witches. Relying on Western sensory legalism that focused primarily on sight, British officials distrusted Indigenous customs that indicted witches through non-visual means. Often, during medicine murder trials in Basutoland of the 1940s and 1950s, southern African legal questions of conjuring and divining therefore focused o…
