This RaceB4Race roundtable featured the work of Lisa Barksdale-Shaw, Jean E. Howard, Marisa J. Fuentes, and Lehua Yim, and was hosted by Urvashi Chakravarty and Kim F. Hall. The roundtable brought together these scholars from different disciplinary perspectives to celebrate and discuss the legacy and futures of a landmark work by a groundbreaking scholar in the field of Premodern Critical Race Studies, Black Lives in the English Archives, 1500-1677: Imprints of the Invisible, by the late Imtiaz Habib. A vital intervention in archival praxis, methodological innovation, and disciplinary possibility, Black Lives in the English Archives radically redefines the scope of scholarly possibility. These scholars reflected on the legacy and futures of Habib’s work for their own and for the commitments and approaches of our field.
RaceB4Race is an ongoing conference series and professional network community by and for scholars of color working on issues of race in premodern literature, history, and culture. RaceB4Race centers the expertise, perspectives, and sociopolitical interests of BIPOC scholars, whose work seeks to expand critical race theory. Bridging many traditional disciplinary divides, RaceB4Race not only creates innovative scholarly dialogues, but also fosters social change within premodern studies as a whole.
