Dr. Jose Nafafe (Univ of Bristol) will be in the US in Nov '23 talking at Princeton, BU, & MSU about Lourenço da Silva Mendonça, a 17thC Black African abolitionist who brought a lawsuit before the papal court to end slavery. Dr. Nafafe hopes to make new connections and bring his talk to additional locations. If you're able to help schedule something, I hope you'll reach out to him.
