Black France/France Noire: The History and Politics of Blackness
ISBN: 9780822352624 / Angielski / Miękka / 342 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) In Black France / France Noire, scholars, activists, and novelists from France and the United States address the untenable paradox at the heart of French society. France's constitutional and legal discourses do not recognize race as a meaningful category. Yet the lived realities of race and racism are ever-present in the nation's supposedly race-blind society. The vaunted universalist principles of the French Republic are far from realized. Any claim of color-blindness is belied by experiences of anti-black racism, which render blackness a real and consequential historical, social, and...

ISBN: 9789956791255 / Francuski / Miękka / 194 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) It is important to question some recurrent commonplaces about the (post)colonial order and the preservation of the environment if one wants to reconcile ecocriticism and postcolonial theories. For instance, were pre-colonial societies devoid of ecological awareness? Is the environmental commitment of the developed world a kind of repentance for the damages that its material comfort has caused to the environment? Are the underprivileged people of the third world so concerned with their daily survival that they become unable to advocate for the protection of the environment? Can we conclude,...

Du Bois' work, but in the whole of the history of sociology and as a mantlepiece of African-American literary history.

Afro-Mexico: Dancing Between Myth and Reality
ISBN: 9780292737440 / Angielski / Miękka / 183 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) While Africans and their descendants have lived in Mexico for centuries, many Afro-Mexicans do not consider themselves to be either black or African. For almost a century, Mexico has promoted an ideal of its citizens as having a combination of indigenous and European ancestry. This obscures the presence of African, Asian, and other populations that have contributed to the growth of the nation. However, performance studies--of dance, music, and theatrical events--reveal the influence of African people and their cultural productions on Mexican society. In this work, Anita Gonzalez...

12.5 million Africans were shipped to the New World during the Middle Passage. While just over 11.0 million survived the arduous journey, only about 450,000 of them arrived in the United States. The rest--over ten and a half million--were taken to the Caribbean and Latin America. This astonishing fact changes our entire picture of the history of slavery in the Western hemisphere, and of its lasting cultural impact. These millions of Africans...

The Case Against Afrocentrism
ISBN: 9781617033315 / Angielski / Miękka / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) Postcolonial discourses on African Diaspora history and relations have traditionally focused intensely on highlighting the common experiences and links between black Africans and African Americans. This is especially true of Afrocentric scholars and supporters who use Africa to construct and validate a monolithic, racial, and culturally essentialist worldview. Publications by Afrocentric scholars such as Molefi Asante, Marimba Ani, Maulana Karenga, and the late John Henrik Clarke have emphasized the centrality of Africa to the construction of Afrocentric essentialism. In the last fifteen... Postcolonial discourses on African Diaspora history and relations have traditionally focused intensely on highlighting the common experiences and l... |

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) Since the end of the American Civil War, African-slave descendants, or "African-Americans," have been struggling to gain so-called 'freedom'. Clearly, the history of "Black peoples" condition in America since the "Emancipation" has sustained an underlying perception that true freedom has still not been attained. In all of the efforts that have gone forth, from segregation, desegregation, assimilation, separation, "civil rights," marches, protests, and demands, what has, thus far, never been examined is the "legal status" of African slaves and their post-emancipation descendants, which over...
