Amazon Nation or Aryan Nation: White Women and the Coming of Black Genocide
ISBN: 9781894946551 / Angielski / Miękka / 158 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) These angry essays show how the massive New Afrikan uprisings of the 1960s were answered by the white ruling class: with the destruction of New Afrikan communities coast to coast, the decimation of the New Afrikan working class, the rise of the prison state and an explosion of violence between oppressed people. Taken on their own, in isolation, these blights may seem to be just more social issues for NGOs to get grants for, but taken together and in the context of amerikkkan history, they constitute genocide.

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) While the study of race relations in the United States continues to inspire and influence European thinking, Europeans have yet to confront their own history. To be black in Europe--whether during the sixteenth century or today--means sharing one crucial experience: being part of a small, but visible minority. European slave-owners, company directors, and investors in the distant past maintained an ocean-wide gap between themselves and the enslaved in the plantation colonies of the Caribbean. In the following centuries, this distance persisted. Even today, to be black in Europe often...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) The African diaspora is arguably the most important event in modern African history. From the fifteenth century to the present, millions of Africans have been dispersed -- many of them forcibly, others driven by economic need or political persecution -- to other continents, creating large communities with African origins living outside their native lands.

Among the known legacies of the diaspora...
