Thanks, Amalia! You'll be at the Caribbean Digital conference next month, right? Diana, Estherine, and Linsey will present on this project there and it would be great to get some feedback from you.

In the process we will also research how and with what effect enslaved people used legal procedures, and how Guyanese geography shaped life during slavery and struggles against it.

...and connect them to information about the individuals who brought the complaints in the Returns of Registers of Slaves (T 71 Series).

We will build a digital archive out of the recorded words of enslaved people. We will transcribe, summarize and map the complaints brought by enslaved people recorded in the Reports of the Protectors of Slaves (and Fiscals) of British Guiana (Berbice and Demerara Essequibo)...

I shifted in everything except senior seminars to in-class writing only a couple years ago and can’t imagine going back. Such better results all around.
