Representing Migration through Digital Humanities

Photo of Prof. Charlotte Sussman with caption: "We’re trying to emphasize that the Atlantic passage was not just a medium or an interlude but an important part of how slavery transpired in the Americas.”

From 2017-2019, the Representing Migration Humanities Lab worked to excavate the histories and presents of human mobility, investigating how this phenomenon, which is central to the making of the modern world, entered culture, consciousness and memory through narrative, memoir, archive, history and memorial. A 2019-20 Bass Connections project continues the work of the lab and builds on the 2019 Data+ summer project. Learn more>>
