Recenzii
“An indispensable contribution to the contemporary field of race, queer, and feminist studies, offering an unique perspective on AfroSwedish studies in Sweden, while engaging in a multifaceted conversation with the global field of cultural studies and its potential for public pedagogy.” —Scandinavian Studies
“AfroSwedish Places of Belonging is field defining in the emerging interdisciplinary field of AfroSwedish studies. The book’s strength lies in its refusal to be pedantic or absolutist about its scope or debates; Osei-Kofi acknowledges internal tensions and contradictions, challenging Swedish exceptionalism through critical, feminist, decolonial and queer analytical frameworks applied to racialization, self-imagination, belonging, agency, kinship and possibilities for liberatory public pedagogy.” —European Journal of Women's Studies
“This is an important book and a timely one, which provides a badly needed contribution to the global field of ethnic studies.” —Ursula Lindqvist, Gustavus Adolphus College
"Nana Osei-Kofi adds a refreshingly new contribution to our understanding of the Afroeuropean corridors of African Diaspora Studies. AfroSwedish Places of Belonging is breathtaking in scale and breathgiving in scope. Grounded solidly and soundly in critical feminist thought and critical race theory, its approach is cultural, reflexive, and insightfully vulnerable. With its attention drawn to the intricacies of Blackness in Sweden, it deftly circumnavigates the sneaky sticky binary trappings of racism and race. Consequently, the unbounded vibrancy of diasporic worlds such as Black Joy and Black Queerness open out gloriously."—Chandra D. Bhimull, Colby College
