Abstract
Abstract: With Haiti at its helm, this article reimagines the conch shell as a methodology of resistance and renewal. The Lambi model is presented to interpret temporal pathways and ancestral practices within African Diaspora lives. Time and space serve as axes of intersection, connecting and delineating points of departure surrounding race, space, power, and freedom. A framework is established through the works of three Haitian writers and activists: Jemima Pierre, Michel-Rolph Trouillot, and Edwidge Danticat. Grounded in an Antillean feminist lens, this formulation of Diaspora identity carries the cadence of a fluid and holistic orientation with ontological, epistemological, and pedagogical implications.
