This is John Drabinski and you’re listening to The Black Studies podcast, a Mellon grant sponsored series of conversations examining the history of the field. Our conversations engage with a wide range of activists and scholars - senior figures in the field, late doctoral students, and everyone in between, culture workers, and political organizers - in order to explore the cultural and political meaning of Black Studies as an area of inquiry and its critical methods.
Today’s conversation is with Chevy Eugene, who teaches in the Department of Political Science at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia. In addition to a number of scholarly publications on Caribbean thought and the issue of reparations, he has co-edited a book Public Policy Formulation in Post-colonial Africa and the Caribbean from Palgrave (2025) and has done national and international advocacy and activist work on reparations for slavery in the Caribbean. Across this conversation, we discuss the relation between justice work and Black study, the relationship between Black Studies and community struggle, and the impact of Black ways of knowing on the Black Studies classroom.
