This week’s read was these gems by Noémie Ndiaye & Emily Weissbourd. They complement e/o so nicely, esp by compellingly pushing national, geographical & temporal boundaries of historical race studies in English. #shakerace is now stronger by taking new directions! Must-reads!

Shout out to artist Claire Partington, whose stunning earthenware figure Saint Margaret (2019) graces the cover of The Oxford Handbook of Shakespeare and Race #shakerace #pcrs #RaceB4Race clairepartington.co.uk/saint-margaret
