Above: Carson presenting a paper addressing the concept of trans-racial identity and feminist
equality in the Atlantic world. His paper went on to address the
international organization of women and their rights in the era of
sexual emancipation and the rise of anti-slave societies. After reading
portions of his paper that addressed this basic premise below, he went
on to show a brief series of slides showcasing the significance of
political borders… by land and sea, as well as the role of slavery,
religion, and gender as constructs of the Atlantic world.
