So thrilled that my piece on Barbary Newton, a seventeenth-century enslaving woman is out in the world - part of a WMQ article forum, “Absentee Women Enslavers: Two Case Studies” - paired with Jared Ross Hardesty’s research on the Mackintosh sisters w/ reflections from Zacek, Maskiell & Amussen ✨

Saw this stunning painting at the Walters in Baltimore this weekend - with a very interesting sitter bio too.

Hello #skystorians 👋
I’m a historian writing on women, colonization & slavery in early America. I’m esp interested in family+intimate networks.
Recently I’ve been exploring some new family archives, where I came across this letter from a woman in Jamaica with a sample of cloth for her new coach.
