Reena Goldthree is a historian whose work focuses on war, empire, and political movements in the Caribbean and the Atlantic world. She is the author of *Democracy’s Foot Soldiers: World War I and the Politics of Empire in the Greater Caribbean*, published by Princeton University Press in 2025, which examines how colonial subjects from the Caribbean engaged with imperial power, military service, and democratic rhetoric during and after the First World War. The book analyzes soldiers, laborers, and political organizers to show how participation in the war reshaped debates over citizenship, sovereignty, and self-determination across the region. Goldthree’s research draws on multilingual archival sources to situate the Greater Caribbean within global histories of empire, race, and political mobilization.
