Early African Caribbean Newspapers as Archipelagic Media in the
Emancipation Age shows how two Black-edited periodical publications
in the early decades of the nineteenth century worked towards
emancipation through medium-specific interventions across material
and immaterial lines. More concretely, this book proposes an
archipelagic framework for understanding the emancipatory struggles
of the Antiguan Weekly Register in St. John's and the Jamaica
Watchman in Kingston. Complicating the prevalent narrative about
the Register and the Watchman as organs of the free people of
color, this book continues to explore the heterogeneity and
evolution of Black newspaper print on the liberal spectrum. As
such, Early African Caribbean Newspapers makes the case that the
Register and the Watchman participated in shaping the contemporary
communication market in the Caribbean. To do so, this study engages
deeply with both the textuality and materiality of the newspaper
and presents fresh visual material.
