Black History Month – A Kick in the Belly: Women, Slavery & Resistance on 25th October, 2021

25

Date and Time: 25 October 2021 21:30 – 23:30 IST

Day: Monday

Organised by: School of History Classics and Archaeology

A Kick in the Belly: Women, Slavery & Resistance tells the forgotten story of enslaved West Indian women and the many different ways they fought back. It is a tale of courage and resilience that, according to its author, has been virtually air-brushed out of history. Stella Dadzie’s lecture will focus on the reasons she wrote the book and some of the challenges of research in a field that has traditionally viewed the experiences of the enslaved through a racist or misogynistic lens.
