Research Interests:
I research how African, Caribbean, and African-American writers (and artists generally) rewrite colonial discourses, especially those that dominated the British empire. I look at how these revisions can change how we think about spaces (e.g., the city, the Caribbean island, the continent of Africa, home) and thereby change how we think about ourselves and others.
