DESCRIPTION
Dispossessed Lives: Enslaved Women, Violence, and the Archive (Early American Studies)
In the eighteenth century, Bridgetown, Barbados, was heavily populated by both enslaved and free
women. Marisa J. Fuentes creates a portrait of urban Caribbean slavery in this colonial town from the
perspective of these women whose stories appear only briefly in historical records. Fuentes takes us
through the streets of Bridgetown with an enslaved runaway inside a brothel run by a freed woman of
color in the midst of a white urban household in sexual chaos to the gallows where enslaved people were
executed and within violent scenes of enslaved women's punishments. In the process, Fuentes
interrogates the archive and its historical production to expose the ongoing effects of white colonial
power that constrain what can be known about these women.Combining fragmentary sources with
interdisciplinary methodologies that include black feminist theory and critical studies of history and
slavery, Dispossessed Lives demonstrates how the construction of the archive marked enslaved
women's bodies, in life and in death. By vividly recounting enslaved life through the experiences of
individual women and illuminating their conditions of confinement through the legal, sexual, and
representational power wielded by slave owners, colonial authorities, and the archive, Fuentes
challenges the way we write histories of vulnerable and often invisible subjects.
