The Atlantic Ocean created and destroyed empires. This course will explore those who fought against the expansion of imperial powers, including slaves who crossed the ocean involuntarily, Indigenous peoples defending their homelands, women who demanded equality, and pirates who constructed an alternative universe. The Atlantic revolutions (American, French, Haitian, and South American) set empires on fire and ushered in a new era of resistance to oppression. |
