Clara Marguerite Christian (May 1895 – September 1964), born in Dominica, was the first black woman to study at the University of Edinburgh and went on to be a "highly respected" mother of six. Her university experience speaks to the "double jeopardy" of "navigating both race and gender within whiteness", embodying "the simultaneous invisibility and hyper-visibility" of being a black woman in Edinburgh during the 1910s. She married fellow student Edgar Fitzgerald Gordon, and in the 1920s moved with him to Bermuda, where he joined the medical service, and where she spent the rest of her life.
