DESCRIPTION:The “afterlife of slavery\,” a concept coined by Saidiya H
 artman and rooted in the work of Hazel V. Carby and Hortense Spillers\, ex
 plores how the legacy of transatlantic slavery continues to shape American
  life. Toni Morrison’s Beloved (1987) is often cited as central to this 
 framework. Yet in A Mercy (2008)\, Morrison imagines a world outside the c
 onstraints of this legacy\, set in a time before slavery’s full establis
 hment. This lecture examines how Morrison’s later novel engages with\, o
 r departs from\, the afterlife of slavery\, focusing on archival materials
  that reveal her role in shaping its publication.\n\nProfessor Kinohi Nish
 ikawa teaches African American literature at Princeton University. He is t
 he author of Street Players: Black Pulp Fiction and the Making of a Litera
 ry Underground (University of Chicago Press\, 2018)\, and co-editor of Sit
 es of Memory: Toni Morrison and the Archive. His work has appeared in ASAP
 /Journal\, American Literary History\, and Novel.
