DESCRIPTION:In On the Move: Mobility in the Modern Western World\, Tim Cre
 swell asserts mobility as liberty and freedom began to emerge during the e
 arly modern period\, 1600-1800 when elites perceived of mobility as a righ
 t of the modern citizen. But\, for many others\, mobility was often contro
 lled and restricted.   The mobility of Afro-descendants in the eighteenth 
 and nineteenth centuries is an emerging research interest in archaeology. 
 In my overview of this archaeological scholarship\, I distinguish between 
 secondary diasporas\, case studies of migrations from one place to another
  place within the Americas\, and reverse diasporas—migrations of Afro-de
 scendants back to Africa. As much of this research is ongoing\, I raise so
 me possibilities of the material transfers and effects of these movements 
 on building practices\, foodways\, and spirituality among these resettled 
 communities.  \n\nZoom registration: https://cam-ac-uk.zoom.us/meeting/reg
