Through a microhistory of the Moravian archive from Jamaica, Gerbner shows how scholars can utilize colonial and missionary sources to tell Africana stories. Reading for irruptions offers insight into the Afro-Caribbean practice of Obeah before the practice was deemed a crime. Obeah, which developed in the British Caribbean under slavery, was criminalized as witchcraft by the British colonial government in the wake of Tacky's Revolt, the largest enslaved uprising in the eighteenth-century British Atlantic World. While historians often view Obeah through the lens of European categories such as religion or superstition, reading for irruptions reveals a new story about Obeah, Christianity, and criminalization. Archival Irruptions argues that we must reckon with the legacies of slavery to understand how some religious practices have been, and continue to be, excluded from the lexicon of religion and criminalized. Reading colonial and missionary archives for irruptions offers one method to address the history of epistemic violence and re-center the lives, experiences, and perspectives of those who have been targeted by systemic repression and criminalization"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aObeah (Cult)$zJamaica$xHistory$y18th century 606 $aReligion and sociology$zJamaica$xHistory 606 $aBlack people$zJamaica$xReligion$xHistory 606 $aCults$zJamaica$xHistory 606 $aWitchcraft$zJamaica$xHistory 606 $aReligions$xAfrican influences 615 0$aObeah (Cult)$xHistory 615 0$aReligion and sociology$xHistory. 615 0$aBlack people$xReligion$xHistory. 615 0$aCults$xHistory. 615 0$aWitchcraft$xHistory. 615 0$aReligions$xAfrican influences. 676 $a299.6/7 700 $aGerbner$b Katharine$f1983-$01848665 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911033573003321 996 $aArchival Irruptions$94435887 997 $aUNINA
