Black British History: New Perspectives: Bloomsbury Global Black Studies

Editat de Dr Hakim Adi
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 12 dec 2024
Over 1500 years before the Empire Windrush docked on British shores, people of African descent were playing a significant and far-ranging role in British history, from the African soldiers on Hadrian's Wall to the Black British intellectuals who made London a hub of radical, Pan-African ideas. But while there has been a growing interest in this history, there has been little recognition of the sheer breadth and diversity of the Black British experience, until now.

This collection combines the latest work from both established and emerging scholars of Black British history. It spans the centuries from the first Black Britons to the latest African migrants, covering everything from Africans in Tudor England to the movement for reparations, and the never ending struggles against racism in between.

An invaluable resource for both future scholarship and those looking for a useful introduction to Black British history, Black British History: New Perspectives transforms our understanding of Britain, and of its place in the world.

Recenzii

A truly ground-breaking collection bringing new and important insights to the history of Black people in Britain. Black British History is a powerful body of work that reimagines the role Blackness in Britain. An indispensable contribution to how we understand Britain.
.a valuable contribution to the growing field of Black history in Britain. As a history that has been largely hidden, it is also of necessity a history of the efforts to obscure, minimize and position Black presence and actions in ways that substantiate White hegemony.
With educators from primary through to tertiary level seeking to 'decolonise the curriculum', this volume provides an excellent introduction to the incredibly rich and varied methodologies, conceptual frameworks, and archival sources that can be used to explore the lives of Britain's historic Black communities.
A welcome contribution that focuses solely on the historical experiences, struggles and radicalism of the African diaspora in Britain throughout the ages.
