They define. Definitions ascribe images to people, places and things. Ultimately, they determine how people are treated by others. The Founder of Black History Month, Carter G. Woodson, certainly knew that. That said, Black History Month is a time to reflect on pet peeve words that are used to describe Black people, especially those born in America. Take the word “blacks.” It is dehu- manizing. The word “blacks” subconsciously describes Black people as less than and, com- paratively speaking, not as human as. Here’s why. The word “”blacks” is a plural noun that rhymes with words that describe a collective of animals such as cats, rats, bats, snakes and dogs. Or, things such as hats, slats, vats, mats, etc. In a subtle way, “blacks” is used in the same way as animals and things. Yet, the term “blacks” rolls off tongues so easily and comfortably. Each utterance has an accumulative effect, which more firmly entrenches the underlying association with animals and things and with the undercurrent of comparative inferiority of Black people, especially of African Americans. Every expression of “blacks” creates a subconscious association and a collec- tive mindset of “blacks” as those things. Recently, conservative Caucasian pundit, Ann Coulter, in discussing liberals and conservatives and making a point on a television show said, “our blacks are better than your blacks.” Some might argue that saying the word, “whites,” is the same. Not so. “Whites,” as a derivative of “white” has a culturally inherent association with positive concepts such as good , pure and universal concepts such as people, woman, man and child. The word “whites” doesn’t have the same meaning for two other reasons. One, it doesn’t rhyme with the plurals for animals and things. And, secondly, the term is seldom used, especially in media. Media use is most important because media impacts image which dictates a public collective mindset for a group of people and how they are treated or mistreated in our soci- ety.

THE ATLANTIC MIND: ZEPHANIAH KINGSLEY, SLAVERY, AND THE POLITICS OF RACE IN THE ATLANTIC WORLD by MARK J. FLESZAR Under the Direction of Dr. Jared Poley and Dr. H. Robert Baker ABSTRACT Enlightenment philosophers had long feared the effects of crisscrossing boundaries, both real and imagined. Such fears were based on what they considered a brutal ocean space frequented by protean shape-shifters with a dogma of ruthless exploitation and profit. This intellectual study outlines the formation and fragmentation of a fluctuating worldview as experienced through the circum-Atlantic life and travels of merchant, slaveowner, and slave trader Zephaniah Kingsley during the Era of Revolution. It argues that the process began from experiencing the costs of loyalty to the idea of the British Crown and was tempered by the pervasiveness of violence, mobility, anxiety, and adaptation found in the booming Atlantic markets of the Caribbean during the Haitian Revolution.

Slavery was filled with incidents of brutality, punctuated here and there by moments when individuals reached across the barriers of race, gender and class to be decent to each other. Kingsley Plantation offers the opportunity to encounter this doubled-faced reality in the complex lives of Anta Majigeen Ndiaye (Anna Kingsley) and Zephaniah Kingsley. During Florida’s colonial plantation period (1763-1865), Fort George Island was owned by many planters. The site name comes from one of those owners, Zephaniah Kingsley. In 1814, Kingsley moved to Fort George Island with his wife and three children (a fourth child would be born at this plantation). His wife, Anta Majigeen Ndiaye, was from Senegal, Africa and was purchased by Kingsley as a slave in 1806. She actively participated in plantation management, acquiring her own land and slaves when she was freed by Kingsley in 1811. This account reveals an often hidden fact that some slave owners married their slaves, and that some former slaves in America went on to own slaves.
