In Spanish! Dear historian Andrea Guerrero-Mosquera reviewed my book Humans in Shackles (@uchicagopress.bsky.social) in the Colonial Latin American Review, a very generous review while we wait for the publication in Spanish, hopefully next year. #slaveryarchive

It is a real honor to receive this year’s Slavery Archive Book Prize for *Freedom Ship*. The award means all the more to me because I have such respect for what @araujohistorian.bsky.social and her colleagues have built through the Slavery Archive Digital Initiative (@slaveryarchive.bsky.social).
