Andreana (Andree) Cunningham is an interdisciplinary anthropologist whose, research integrates bioarchaeological and archival evidence to examine the biosocial effects of the slave trade. She is specifically interested in the patterns of variation that existed for enslaved people in regions that are not traditionally placed in dialogue (currently the Caribbean, South Atlantic Ocean, and Indian Ocean). Her research also examines the ways that these sites of the slave trade can be used to re-imagine theory and practice around heritage preservation and community engagement. Andree has conducted fieldwork centered around non-invasive osteology, archival analysis, and community-based efforts in the U.S., St. Helena, and South Africa.<\/p>\n
