Dr. Starks most recent publication, Freebooters and
Smugglers examines the tactics and strategies that the
adherents of the foreign slave trade used to challenge the
law. It reassesses the role that Americans played in the
continuation of foreign slave transshipments into the country
right up to the Civil War, shedding light on an important
topic that has been largely overlooked in the historiography
of the slave trade. Obadele-Starks holds a joint
appointment at Texas A&M University-College Station and Texas
A&M University at Qatar, where he is currently teaching.
