Early Caribbean Society

The Early Caribbean Society is a space for sharing, developing and foregrounding scholarship, research, writing and creative responses to the literature, history, and culture of the Caribbean region from the period of the earliest written records until the era of emancipation. ECS is a forum open to scholars of all nations and disciplines committed to ensuring that the importance of the early Caribbean to global history and culture is remembered. We are an antiracist, anticolonial organization that includes and stands in solidarity with Indigenous and colonized peoples.
