On February 27 at 6PM, as part of our Evelyn Barbour Lecture Series,  Dr. Andrea Douglas will be in conversation with Joshua D. Rothman. Rothman is Professor of History and Chair of the Department of History at the University of Alabama. A graduate of the University of Virginia, he is the author of three books on the history of American slavery, including, most recently, The Ledger and the Chain: How Domestic Slave Traders Shaped America, which was a finalist for the Harriet Tubman Book Prize from the Lapidus Center for the Historical Analysis of Transatlantic Slavery at the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture.

This talk is free and open to the public.
