DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY AND ARCHAEOLOGY

Professor Dave Dunkley, of the University of Missouri, who was an undergradu- ate and postgraduate student at Mona, before completing a PhD at Warwick and returning to teach at Mona. He was recruited to the Black Studies department at the University of Missouri. He spoke on ‘The “Outsider Within”: Rastafari Women and the Struggle Against Colonialism in Jamaica’ to a fascinated audience. I hope that his text will be submitted for the collected volume of recent Goveia Lectures that is in preparation. It should prove a valuable addition to a useful collection for re-evaluating approaches to the history of the Caribbean. He also found time to talk to our students and we may yet receive flyers for Missouri’s PhD programs. PUBLICATIONS AND PRESENTATIONS Our publication ratio has not yet recovered from the pandemic’s closing archives and libraries across the region. An article by Dr. Okenve did win the Faculty’s best publications prize (colleagues in Modern Languages kindly located a Spanish-based researcher who read and appreciated in work on Spanish Guinea). His colleagues await his book with interest.
