Reckoning with Slavery: Gender, Kinship, and Capitalism in the Early Black Atlantic

Through evidence from visual art, law, and commerce Morgan considers the challenges and possibilities of crafting a social historical study of women whose voices are so often absent from the archival record but whose lives and perspectives have proven to be essential for comprehending the origins of racial capitalism.
