DESCRIPTION:"Black History's Warning to the World"\n\nThe past several year
 s have witnessed transatlantic efforts to deny and disparage Black perspec
 tives on our common history. This is a denial of our right to critically a
 nalyze all of our history from points of view that emerge from a history o
 f enslavement\, impoverishment\, and racial violence\, and that question t
 he customary disavowal that these things constitute fundamental features o
 f the Atlantic experience. Reframing narratives of the Age of Revolution\,
  this lecture highlights the ways in which Black history is world history\
 , and as such it has lessons - and warnings - for the world.\n\nVincent Br
 own is the Charles Warren Professor of American History and Professor of A
 frican and African American Studies at Harvard University. He has publishe
 d two prize-winning books about the history of slavery: The Reaper’s Gar
 den: Death and Power in the World of Atlantic Slavery (2008) and Tacky’s
  Revolt: The Story of an Atlantic Slave War (2020). The author of numerous
  articles and reviews in scholarly journals\, he is also Principal Investi
 gator and Curator for the animated thematic map Slave Revolt in Jamaica\, 
 1760-1761: A Cartographic Narrative (2013)\, he was Producer and Director 
 of Research for the award-wining television documentary Herskovits at the 
 Heart of Blackness (2009)\, broadcast nationally on season 11 of the PBS s
