“The Traipsing Mulatta and Economies of Blackness”

This paper focuses on 18th- and 19th-century visual and written
representations of the signares of the Senegalese islands Gorée and
Saint-Louis in order to consider how the mulatta’s synchronic iterations
across the Atlantic disrupt the coherence of race and belonging in the
African Diaspora.

Light refreshments will be available.

 

Lisa Ze Winters completed her Ph.D. in African Diaspora Studies at UC
