Rebecca Hall developed a high school teaching guide for Wake. ![]() Using in-depth archival research and a measured use of historical imagination, Hall constructs the likely pasts of Adono and Alele, women rebels who fought for freedom during the Middle Passage, as well as the stories of women who led slave revolts in Colonial New York. But Hall decides to look deeper, and her journey takes her through old court records, slave ship captain’s logs, crumbling correspondence, and even the forensic evidence from the bones of enslaved women from the “negro burying ground” uncovered in Manhattan. The accepted history of slave revolts has always told her that enslaved women took a back seat. ![]() Rebecca Hall, a historian and granddaughter of enslaved people. They fought their enslavers throughout the Americas. Women warriors planned and led slave revolts on slave ships during the Middle Passage.

But she has harsh words for Woodrow Wilson, who suppressed news about the Spanish flu in service of America’s WWI effort, and is even harsher to those who cause active harm, such as the anti-vaccine activists sabotaging herd immunity. Wright treats generously even misguided attempts to ease suffering, as when she describes such superstitious treatments as the “exploding frog cure” for bubonic plague.
