Come celebrate the launch of Assistant Professor Kaysha Corinealdi’s book, Panama in Black: Afro-Caribbean World Making in the Twentieth Century (Duke University Press, 2022).
Drawing on a rich array of sources, including speeches, yearbooks, photographs, government reports, radio broadcasts, newspaper editorials, and oral histories, Corinealdi presents the Panamanian isthmus as a crucial site in the making of an Afro-diasporic world that linked cities and towns like Colón, Kingston, Panamá City, Brooklyn, Bridgetown, and La Boca.
Refreshments will be served.
