*Meleisa Ono-George* is writing a public-facing book entitled _My Name is Amelia Newsham: Science, Art and the Making of Race_. To do so, she uses the sparse source material of an enslaved woman’s life to weave an intimate and nuanced history of race in eighteenth-century Britain.
*Alice Rio_ is writing a general narrative history of early medieval Europe told via the experiences of a handful of migrant women, or women who were in one way or another bearers of a minority culture within their household. Her main methodological problem is dearth of sources about (and near-absence of sources written by) women for this period, and how not to end up just talking about men instead. She wants to argue this problem also presents unexpected opportunities.
