This transformative collection advances new approaches to Black
intellectual history by foregrounding the experiences and ideas of
people who lacked access to more privileged mechanisms of public
discourse and power. While the anthology highlights renowned
intellectuals such as W. E. B. Du Bois, it also spotlights thinkers
such as enslaved people in the antebellum United States, US Black
expatriates in Guyana, and Black internationals in Liberia. The
knowledge production of these men, women, and children has
typically been situated outside the disciplinary and conceptual
boundaries of intellectual history. The volume centers on the
themes of slavery and sexuality; abolitionism; Black
internationalism; Black protest, politics, and power; and the
intersections of the digital humanities and Black intellectual
history. The essays draw from diverse methodologies and fields to
examine the ideas and actions of Black thinkers from the eighteenth
century to the present, offering fresh insights while creating
space for even more creative approaches within the field. Timely
and incisive, Ideas in Unexpected Places encourages scholars to ask
new questions through innovative interpretive lenses-and invites
students, scholars, and other practitioners to push the boundaries
of Black intellectual history even further.
