I have added references to the Caribbean Studies Association as well as the Association for Women Historians which nominated Katherine McKittick for book awards.

I have also added references to some reviews of her book in peer reviewed academic journals which support the synopses of the texts. (many others are available)

Additionally I have included a link to the Encyclopedia of African Diaspora which includes sections on Katherine McKittrick and her work

Finally I have included a link to the Google Scholars Demonic Grounds page which has 119 citations as of today

 * As a reviewing administrator,  with a special interest in academic things and people, I needed to make some substantial changes to match our usual formatting. We normally to not make up an article by quoting or paraphrasing extensively from reviews, especially in the customarily impenetrable academic book review jargon.  Nor do we list "influences" unless they can be documented from 3rd party sources: every scholar has been influenced by everyone important  who has previously worked on the subject. We don't normally list journal articles for people whose notability is in fields depending on books; that the books have been significantly reviewed is enough to show notability according to both WP:AUTHOR and WP:PROF. You could add the one or two most significant articles if you can prove their significance by citations or otherwise. Ialso removed a considerable amount of unnecessary duplication.
 * There is additional material needed: primarily her basic biography: birth, education, thesis title, previous positions. We put this material at the beginning. Only university public relations writing puts them at then end. You should then make links to the article on her from the section of notable people in her present university, and the universities where she got her degrees--and even her high school, and her place of birth.
