(9/10/15) Claude McKay, Eric Walrond and the Exoticized Caribbean @ Howard U

Howard University’s Caribbean studies program hosted the conference, “A Global Crossroads? Caribbean studies beyond disciplines” in September 2015.

Raphael Dalleo presented from his research, discussing how U.S.-based writers during the 1920s like Eric Walrond and Claude McKay found themselves translating their Caribbean identities through images of voodoo circulated by the occupation of Haiti.
