Welcome!
I’m a comparative historian of modern eastern and southern Africa. I focus on the ways in which African societies have defined their relationship to the past and the future, and how these changing relationships affected notions of sovereignty and justice on the continent.
In 2022/23, I’ll serve as a Postgraduate Research Associate at Princeton University’s History Department.
Upcoming Presentations:
May/June 2023: “Projecting Posterity,” Panel, European Conference on African Studies, Cologne
July 3-7 2023: “‘My name: Omahungi’ – Print Culture, Christianity, and Memories of Genocide in Central Namibia 1910-1961″, Memory Studies Association, Newcastle Upon Tyne
