Research Assistant
Stephanie Jones-Rogers is a third year doctoral student in the African American History program. She earned her M.A. in United States History from Rutgers-Newark and her B.A. in Psychology from Rutgers-Livingston College. She is interested in articulations of racialized and gendered power in slavery, emancipation, and Reconstruction. Her dissertation examines the ways in which white slaveowning women navigated the new economic and juridical terrain of the post-revolutionary South, the social and ideological implications of slaveownership for white women in the antebellum era, and their economic investment in the perpetuation of chattel slavery.
