Jane Dinwoodie Interview 26/11/18

Cambridge American History Seminar Podcast

Here's the 8th and final Cambridge American History Seminar podcast of the Michaelmas term. Jane Dinwoodie, a Junior Research Follow at Jesus College, University of Cambridge, speaks to Lewis Defrates about her paper "Evading Indian Removal in the American South, 1812-1850". We talk about her work on evasive native groups in the American south, with particular focus on the 'strategies of evasion' employed and what their presence means for how we think about the State during the period. We also chat about fruitless hours in microfilm rooms, turning a PhD into a book and the joys of funk music while writing. Feel free to get in touch via @camericanist on Twitter or [e-mail] if you have any questions, suggestions or feedback for the future. Spread the word, and thanks for listening! See you in two months!
