In this original and trenchant work, Christina Sharpe interrogates literary, visual, cinematic, and quotidian representations of Black life that comprise what she calls the "orthography of the wake".

Women warriors planned and led slave revolts on slave ships during the Middle Passage. They fought their enslavers throughout the Americas, and then they were erased from history. Wake tells the story of Dr. Rebecca Hall, a historian, granddaughter of slaves, and a woman haunted by the legacy of slavery. The accepted history of slave revolts has always said that enslaved women were not involved, but Rebecca decides to look deeper.

Its December 8, 1941, and on the remote Wake Island—a small, vital outpost nestled between Hawaii and Guam—Marines of the 1st Defense Battalion are gearing up for another grueling day of war preparations that have consumed them for weeks. Meanwhile, the majestic Pan American Airways Philippine Clipper takes to the skies, soaring across the lagoon formed by the islets of Peale, Wake, and Wilkes, bound for Guam.
