Abstract

“Time Period: Aug. 20, 1634-Aug. 19, 1639. Theme – Tobacco” is inspired by early American and colonial history. The essay was published in the New York Times Best Selling 400 Souls: A Community History of African America, 1619-2019 (Penguin Random House 2021). The editors, Dr. Keisha N. Blain and Dr. Ibram X Kendi, requested that I write about the experiences associated with tobacco labor, specifically in context of race and gender, between 1634-1639. In writing this piece, I took special care to rely on historical records and incorporate research-intensive narrative methods such as critical fabulation and rememory.
