Black Catholic Worlds
Centring the lived experiences of enslaved and free people of colour, Black Catholic Worlds illustrates how geographies and mobilities – between continents, oceans, and region – were at the heart of the formation and circulation of religious cultures by people of African descent in the face of racialisation and slavery. This book examines black Catholicism in different sites – towns, mines, haciendas, rochelas, and maroon communities – across New…
Coercion and Enslavement in Motion
Introduction to special issue, Captive Mobilities: Movement, Slavery, and Knowledge Production in the Iberian World
Enslavement between Worlds
Black Africans who were forcibly transported across the Atlantic Ocean experienced myriad forms of coercion alongside the Middle Passage. This article centres on mobilities of Manuel Francisco Zapata, a Black man of Wolof descent, born and raised a Muslim in Meknes, Morocco. Captured and enslaved by the Spanish, he lived for several years in Seville, and was then trafficked to Cartagena de Indias and Panama City before being tried by the Inquisit…
Transimperial mobilities, slavery, and becoming Catholic in eighteenth-century Cartagena de Indias
Complementing the literature on inter-Caribbean Spanish religious “sanctuary” policy and maritime marronage, this article illuminates how enslaved people shared and acted on religious knowledge across oceans and imperial boundaries, long before the “Age of Revolutions.” Curaçao-born Nicholas Baptista, initially with a Dutch enslaver, and Juan de Rada, born in the Portuguese East Indies and captured by an Englishman, found themselves before the tr…
Freedom's Captives
In the late 1840s Magdalena, a young woman of African descent, was held overnight in the stocks, “accompanied only by the steady rain, constellations of stars, and animals that roamed the village of Noanamá,” an Indigenous settlement in Chocó, Colombia (p. 1). Magdalena was “a child of the Free Womb,” born after the introduction of gradual abolition legislation in 1821 and into a world of limited and violent freedoms (p. 2). She emerged from the …
Black knowledge on the move
This article examines African diasporic healing, poisoning and ritual practice as captured in criminal and ecclesiastical trials and accusations, demonstrating how Black healers constructed their knowledge in the Caribbean and Pacific regions of New Granada. Through a connective and comparative approach, it argues that mobility played a central role in the constant creation and recirculation of African-descended healing knowledge in seemingly dis…
