DESCRIPTION:The "afterlife of slavery\," a concept coined by Saidiya Hartm
 an and rooted in the work of Hazel V. Carby and Hortense Spillers\, explor
 es how the legacy of transatlantic slavery continues to shape American lif
 e. Toni Morrison's 'Beloved' (1987) is often cited as central to this fram
 ework. Yet in 'A Mercy' (2008)\, Morrison imagines a world outside the con
 straints of this legacy\, set in a time before slavery's full establishmen
 t. This lecture examines how Morrison's later novel engages with\, or depa
 rts from\, the afterlife of slavery\, focusing on archival materials that 
 reveal her role in shaping its publication.\n\nProfessor Kinohi Nishikawa 
 teaches African American Literature at Princeton University. He is the aut
 hor of 'Street Players: Black Pulp Fiction and the Making of a Literary Un
 derground' (University of Chicago Press\, 2018)\, and co-editor of 'Sites 
 of Memory: Toni Morrison and the Archive'. His work has appeared in 'ASAP/
 Journal'\, 'American Literary History'\, and 'Novel'.
