Michael has been working on the听African Abolitionism: The Rise and Transformations of Anti-Slavery in Africa (AFRAB) project which aims to shed light on听when and where African abolitionist movements developed, identify key ideologues, understand how abolitionist ideas spread among various groups, and explore the political struggles these movements ignited.
