Ideas in Unexpected Places is a groundbreaking anthology that redefines Black intellectual history by centering the experiences and ideas of marginalized groups, including enslaved people, US Black expatriates, and Black internationals.

This transformative collection challenges conventional notions of intellectual history by highlighting the knowledge production of those who have been excluded from mainstream discourse and power.

Through diverse methodologies and fields of study, the essays offer fresh insights into the ideas and actions of Black thinkers from the 18th century to the present, inviting scholars and students to push the boundaries of the field even further.

With its innovative approach, Ideas in Unexpected Places is a must-read for anyone interested in Black intellectual history, abolitionism, Black internationalism, and the intersections of the digital humanities.
