Abstract

Despite the scarcity of sources, the history of African slavery has fostered vivid debates over the nature of the institution and the ways in which gender produced different experiences of slavery. Studying the diversity of women’s experiences of slavery since the advent of Islam in West Africa from an intersectional perspective is a crucial step in order to better assess slave women’s agency in shaping the institution.
