Spirals is the fruit of 10 years of research into anti-Haitianism, building on the work of many others. I will talk about how it has served multiple agendas over time and how the island carried networks of solidarities and alliances.

If you haven't seen the film #Parsley about the 1937 genocide in the Dominican Republic, this will give you a snippet of what is happening NOW: more than a deportation campaign, a TERRORIZING campaign, abuses of all kinds. A complete #ShameintheDR

TOMORROW at 6 pm at The Graduate Center! I will have a pre-event book signing moment at 5:30 pm. Make sure to register and see you then! Penn Press ACLS The Graduate Center BMCC Modern Languages at BMCC National Endowment for the Humanities #Haiti #DominicanRepublic #Spiralsinthecaribbean

Next week, October 24!! Join me and Eve Hayes at this fully online event. Registration required!

TODAY! Can't wait to share ten years of research into anti-Black narratives and state-sponsored violence on the island shared by Haiti and the DR, but also alliances and solidarities forged across communities and recurring over time. See you soon!

"Una madre inmigrante haitiana pide ser deportada junto a su hijo sordomudo, detenido sin importar su condición. No oye, no habla, pero es separado de su madre. Exigimos respeto: no a la deportación masiva ni a la separación de familias #NoALaSeparación" Naciones Unidas

“No es broma: existe un estado de excepción contra la comunidad inmigrante haitiana y dominicanos negros percibidos como irregulares. Revisan vehículos y han militarizado calles principales en busca de personas negras. La situación es crítica y real. #Alerta"
