Book cover set against a gradient background in soft blue and pink tones. The beige cover, with a red series banner, is titled “Europeans as Coastal Brokers in the West and West-Central African Slave Trade (1680–1720)” by Maria Inês Godinho Guarda. The cover illustration shows Louis Freret’s 1795 image “Arrivée des Européens en Afrique,” depicting sailors arriving from a large ship in a bay and being received on the shore.

I am gratified and just plain delighted over this rich and lengthy review essay that assesses _A Plausible Man_ in The New Republic. Evidently, I wrote a caper! Heck yeah.

Original Charter of Carolina (1629): Observe how the charter delegates “absolute” lordship to Heath and his descendants. Charters like this enabled the development of a system of inheritable slavery. #slaverystudies #History https://slaverylawpower.org/original-charter-of-carolina-1629/
