Her first book, Fictions of Consent: Slavery, Servitude, and Free Service in Early Modern England (Penn Press, 2022), explores the ideologies of Atlantic slavery in early modern England, revealing the everyday sites where the foundations of racialized slavery were laid, and is the first book in Penn Press's new series on “RaceB4Race: Critical Race Studies of the Premodern.” Her second book, currently in progress, is titled From Fairest Creatures: Race, Reproduction, and Slavery in the Early Modern British Atlantic World, and examines the nexus of race and reproduction, including the construction of white womanhood and white childhood in the early modern Atlantic world, and its relationship to the structures of colonial violence and enslavement. Articles on (among other subjects) early modern race and reproduction; queer and racialized futurity; labour, domestic service, and whiteness; the “spiriting” of indentured labourers; and the future of early modern race studies appear or are forthcoming in English Literary Renaissance, Shakespeare Quarterly, Renaissance Quarterly, the Journal of Early Modern Cultural Studies, Spenser Studies, postmedieval, Literature Compass, and the edited collections Queering Childhood in Early Modern English Drama and Culture, Shakespeare/Sex: Contemporary Readings in Gender and Sexuality, and The Cambridge Companion to Shakespeare and Race. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60774e84ecd7ea42bc5283a8/47de733d-8a04-4f34-ac5e-df443554c884/Hindmarch-Watson-webpage.jpg Participants and Speakers - Katie Hindmarch-Watson Katie Hindmarch-Watson is a cultural historian of Modern Britain and the British Empire. Her work is broadly engaged in two major, interrelated questions: how to do histories of gender and sexualities in ways that move beyond identities while keeping networks of power and agency into sharp focus; and how to re-engage British labor history with processes of class formation that address continuities alongside (and in some ways independent of) the rise and fall of an industrial proletariat. She is the author of Serving a Wired World: London’s Telecommunications Workers and the Making of an Information Capital (University of California, 2020). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60774e84ecd7ea42bc5283a8/a7762bcf-2968-40fd-a6a9-1eb4a5484c95/PERRYK.jpg Participants and Speakers - Kennetta Hammond Perry Tobias Keene, D.D.S.

As an editor for Made By History, she helps scholars develop their own practical tools for communicating complex arguments in plain language.

Their mission is to provide student athletes of all backgrounds and abilities the opportunity to row, develop, and commit to a team that competes at a national level, while fostering strength of character, a strong work ethic, self confidence, and a respect for others. The organization brings rowing to the wider Oakland community through a range of innovative programs. Focusing on flexibility and community need, this includes curriculum extension, PE credit for graduation, and encouraging youth participants to explore a range of sporting opportunities via "Ergs2School," a project that brings rowing machines and skilled, experienced coaches directly to the community by offering a fun, convenient and challenging workout without the need for transport, equipment or funding. Oakland Strokes coaches, athletes and volunteers can also be found partnering with a number of established community non-profits, including We Lead Ours (WELO), a organization providing children with enrichment programs that use hands-on learning experiences to nurture life skills, and East Oakland Youth Development Center (EOYDC), dedicated to developing the social and leadership capacities of youth so that they achieve excellence in education, career, and service to their communities. Oakland Strokes community partnerships work to meet the needs of the people that they serve. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60774e84ecd7ea42bc5283a8/6f09102a-56e4-41eb-8a48-36807095d894/university-of-warwick-logo.png Community - Writing Labour History in Brexit Britain Network This network was formed out of a symposium held at the University of Warwick in July 2021, entitled '‘Ordinary’ Working-Class People? Brexit Britain and the New Labour History'. It brings together scholars whose work challenges contemporary invocations of ‘the British working class’ as white, male and socially conservative. Their research explores the history of a multi-racial working class, women workers, migrant workers and queer and cosmopolitan working-class cultures. They aim to engage with audiences beyond academia, and to produce research that is relevant within contemporary Britain. The network just launched their new podcast, Rethinking Race in British Labour History, hosted by the History Workshop Podcast.
