Laura Fair is Professor of History at Michigan State University in
the U.S.A. She lived in Zanzibar for many years doing research for
her first book: Pastimes and Politics: Culture, Community and
Identity in Post-abolition Urban Zanzibar, 1890-1945. In this book
she illustrates how former slaves used the social and cultural
tools at their command to demonstrate their freedom from slavery
and articulate alternative visions of justice under colonialism.
Her current book project is a wide-ranging study of commercial
cinema in colonial and post-colonial Tanzania, exploring changes in
exhibition, distribution and reception over time.
