- Abstract:
- A contribution to Transition's “I Can't Breathe” forum, an online space for responses to the murders of unarmed black Americans by police. My piece, which was chosen for publication in the print edition of the magazine, reflected upon the similarities between the death of Eric Garner in New York City and the death of an enslaved sugar refiner named Élie on the Montagne plantation in nineteenth-century Martinique.
