  • Sankofa Imperatives: Black Women, Digital Methods, and the Archival Turn

    P Gabrielle ForemanARTICLEa/b Auto/Biography Studies2023References: 3

    This essay takes up the archival turn—what the author is calling the “sankofa imperative”—in digital spaces, using the work of the Colored Conventions Project to ask broader questions about the recovery of Black women’s life stories and organizing efforts. Does a collective, distributed model of recuperative history in a digital, digitized, database age change both the equation and the ways in which scholars grapple with the argument that “the vi…

  • People, places and performance: Reflections on community archaeology and heritage in north-east Wales

    Open AccessPaul Belford, P Gabrielle ForemanARTICLEJournal of Community Archaeology…2020Cited by: 1References: 4

    This paper explores the transformation of community archaeology and heritage in a particular part of the UK with unique and somewhat conservative sets of structures for delivering public archaeology. The transformation is ongoing and is bounded by a range of theoretical, methodological and institutional constraints. These frameworks provide the context for an account of the successes and failures of projects in north-east Wales. Important strands…

    Racial Recovery, Racial Death:An Introduction in Four Parts P. Gabrielle Foreman and Cherene Sherrard-Johnson In February 2005, an article appeared in the Boston Globe asserting that census records list as white the author of two novels published in the Schomburg Collection of African American Women Writers of the Nineteenth Century (Jackson). The genealogical work reported in the Globe turned out to be sound. Yet the researcher's not quite subtl…

    “Reading Aright”: White Slavery, Black Referents, and The Strategy of Histotextuality in Iola Leroy 1 P. Gabrielle Foreman (bio) I Until fairly recently, time had not been kind to Frances E. W. Harper’s Iola Leroy (1892). Though it was long considered the “first” novel written by an African-American woman, more often than not it was noted for only that. Countless critics of various methodological and ideological persuasions derided the novel for …

    Harriet Jacobs, today perhaps the single-most read and studied black American woman of the nineteenth century, has not until recently enjoyed sustained, scholarly analysis.

The contributors include both established Jacobs scholars such as Jean Fa…

    storyteller takes what [she] tells from experience [her] own or that reported by others. And [she] in turn makes it the experience of those who are listening to [the] tale .... In every case the storyteller is a [wo]man who has counsel for [her] reader.... Today having counsel is beginning to have an old-fashioned ring ... because the communicability of experience is decreasing. -Walter Benjamin, The Storyteller, in Illuminations

Until recently Harriet Jacobs was the lonely black female representative of that era and genre. Critics with specialities in the nineteenth century might have heard of Jarena Lee or Louisa Picquet, but rarely were these authors read. The attention generated by the red…
