#Historians:
What would you assign in an upper-level course that analyzes the contributions of West Africans to the Atlantic world? My course examines agency and power, analyzing how West African polities resisted European encroachments, and how the enslaved shaped the Americas.

Wow! Thanks everyone! Amazing recommendations here. Could make this a four-semester seminar with such amazing work now available. Some of these books I hadn’t thought about in a few years, so this is VERY helpful.
