The African Diaspora: Experiences, Engagements, and New Challenges

Editat de Godfrey T. Vincent
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 dec 2013
"The African Diaspora" uses essays from a variety of disciplines to introduce students to the African Diaspora and the contributions of African peoples at a time when these are being marginalized on a global scale.
The text explores the origins of the Diaspora, and unearths evidence about the development of the Diaspora in the New World. It discusses the transformative role of cultural art forms in people s lives, and details how Twentieth Century Africans navigated time and space in a new environment.
The material also emphasizes how ideology provided a framework for constructing new identities, and highlights the formation of the Black Power ideology. The final section makes the journey back to Africa to examine setbacks and challenges affecting the Motherland. Throughout the text, students are encouraged to read critically to understand the various methodologies and perspectives of the writers.
