Abstract

Archiving Caribbean Identity: Records, Community, and Memory centers on the archival heritage of a region that is most likely unfamiliar to most US-based readers and that, in the popular imagination, is more often abstractly associated with vacation destinations than with the rich history, memory, and culture of its diverse Indigenous population. Like many other areas across the Global South, the Caribbean has been colonized for hundreds of years and was a major nexus of the Atlantic slave trade before some nations gained their independence in the mid- to late twentieth century.
