"Worthy of Freedom: Indenture and Free Labor in the Era of Emancipation" with Jonathan Connolly
Please join us for a talk by historian Jonathan Connolly. Connolly will discuss his new (first!) book, Worthy of Freedom: Indenture and Free Labor in the Era of Emancipation (University of Chicago Press, 2024). The book focuses on Indian indentured labor in Mauritius, British Guiana, and Trinidad to explore the history of the normalization of indenture. As a historian of the British Empire, Jonathan is interested in abolition and emancipation, imperial political and legal culture, and the category of free labor in the Caribbean and the Indian Ocean. This event is co-sponsored with the Department of History.
