UNKNOWN
HISTORIES OF THE CARIBBEAN – This panel will discuss how writers from
the Caribbean have attempted to construct alternative images of the
present and future from the histories of slavery and colonialism that
haunt the Caribbean and its diasporas. In parallel with these invented
stories, archival registers give unexpected details of the unknown
histories of the Caribbean and allow for scrupulously researched
literary works to emerge alongside tales of imagination.
With Natalie Hopkinson (Guyana), author of A Mouth is Always Muzzled, Patrick Bellegarde-Smith (Haiti), author of In The Shadow of Powers: Dantes Bellegarde in Haitian Social Thought, Michael Barnett (Jamaica), author of The Rastafari Movement: A North American and Caribbean Perspective, and Judy Raymond (Trinidad), author of The Colour of Shadows. Moderated by Donna Aza Weir-Soley, author of Eroticism, Spirituality, and Resistance in Black Women’s Writings. Find the full schedule at https://mjfievre.com/readcaribbean-2018/
