Biography

Dr. Claudine Bonner (she/her) is an Associate Professor of racial justice and African Diaspora migration in the Atlantic region. Her teaching focuses on issues of equity and racial justice. She served as the inaugural Vice Provost of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion at Acadia University. Her forthcoming publication "The Black Press: A Shadowed Canadian Tradition" is a collection of essays co-edited with Drs. Nina Reid-Maroney and Boulou Ebanda de B b猫ri. This collection, spanning the period from the 1850s to the early twentieth century, is the first in the field to bring together original historical and Communication Studies research that position pioneering Canadian Black journalists as effective intellectual activists. Her current research explores early twentieth century African-Caribbean and Canadian migration networks, inserting Nova Scotia into the discussion as more than simply a point of transit as has often been suggested.
