Silencing the Past - 2nd Edition by Michel-Rolph Trouillot (Paperback)

Silencing the Past is a thought-provoking analysis of historical narrative that exposes how power operates invisibly throughout history, often silencing marginalized voices.

Trouillot's groundbreaking work explores the contexts in which history is produced and examines why certain events and voices have been deliberately or unconsciously suppressed.

This edition includes a new foreword by renowned scholar Hazel Carby, providing insight into the book's enduring importance.

With its intersectional approach to history, anthropology, Caribbean studies, African-American studies, and post-colonial studies, Silencing the Past is an essential read for anyone interested in understanding the complexities of power and history's silences.
