Student Scholar | Classical Studies & African Antiquity
Academic Profile
A young classicist and public humanist interested in how civilizations are remembered, interpreted, and passed from one generation to the next.
I write to question whose stories become part of our collective memory, whose contributions are overlooked, and how access to the classical world had been shaped by the institutions that preserve and teach it. Every essay is an invitation into the evidence and the larger questions it raises: who gets to inherit civilization, who gets to interpret it, and how does expanding that conversation change out understanding of the past?
