Daniel Domingues, associate professor of African history and co-manager of SlaveVoyages, joined forces with Rice’s Moody Center for the Arts Feb. 18 to host a workshop to help create a new visual identity for the award-winning online database of the global slave trade. Led by Black artists Kathie Foley-Meyer and April Frazier, the workshop hosted members of the Rice community who were invited to work directly with the artists and contribute to the site’s upcoming redesign.
For his work on SlaveVoyages, Domingues has won multiple prestigious grants from the National Endowment for the Humanities, the latest of which was awarded in January.
