Beschreibung:
Aisha Finch is associate professor of gender studies and African American studies at the University of California at Los Angeles and the author of Rethinking Slave Rebellion in Cuba: La Escalera and the Insurgencies of 1841-1844.
"A thought-provoking addition to the growing body of work challenging us to reconceptualize Afro-Cuban, and thereby Cuban, history, from the vantage point of the agency and consciousness of the enslaved, notionally freed, and free men and women of color; inciting us to dig deeper into the complexities and transnational scope of antislavery, anticolonial, and antiracist struggles in what was once one of the most technologically advanced plantation economies integrated into the global capitalist market; and, crucially, calling for present-day memorialization."--Jean Stubbs, professor of history, University of London, and codirector of the Commodities of Empire British Academy Research Project
