About Michael W. Greene

Michael W. Greene is an author and historical researcher whose work examines the intersections of political economy, legal frameworks, regional culture, and grassroots social movements. Utilizing primary-source archival research, legal clause analysis, and oral history documentation, his scholarship analyzes how resource governance, structural policy, and community organization shape contemporary society. In Rising From the Wreckage, Greene documents the synthesizing of West African survivors of a shipwrecked slave ship and the Island Caribs on Yurumein and the Garinagu's creating a unique way of life which survives today. His project Reclaiming Soil and Soul: the Global Blueprint for Black Sovereignty investigates US civil law and colonial mechanisms of resource extraction in Africa and provides a manifesto for Trans-Atlantic Pan-African Sovereignty.
