Racial capitalism has become a widely used term—pointing to the intimate connections between processes of racialization and of capitalist organization. This talk will focus on an eighteenth-century case study of the workings of racial capitalism across the Atlantic, drawing on the extraordinary account of it in Edward Long’s classic 'History of Jamaica'.
Followed by a drinks reception jointly hosted with the Modern British History and Race, Roots & Resistance research groups.
