Book Synopsis An Uneasy Embrace by : Shobana Shankar
Download or read book An Uneasy Embrace written by Shobana Shankar and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-12-01 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The entwined histories of Blacks and Indians defy easy explanation. From Ghanaian protests over Gandhi statues to American Vice President Kamala Harris's story, this relationship--notwithstanding moments of common struggle--seethes with conflicts that reveal how race reverberates throughout the modern world. Shobana Shankar's groundbreaking intellectual history tackles the controversial question of how Africans and Indians make and unmake their differences. Drawing on archival and oral sources from seven countries, she traces how economic tensions surrounding the Indian diaspora in East and Southern Africa collided with widening Indian networks in West Africa and the Black Atlantic, forcing a racial reckoning over the course of the twentieth century. While decolonization brought Africans and Indians together to challenge Euro-American white supremacy, discord over caste, religion, sex and skin color simmered beneath the rhetoric of Afro-Asian solidarity. This book examines the cultural movements, including Pan-Africanism and popular devotionalism, through which Africans and Indians made race consciousness, alongside economic cooperation, a moral priority. Yet rising wealth and nationalist amnesia now threaten this postcolonial ethos. Calls to dismantle statues, from Dakar to Delhi, are not mere symbolism. They express new solidarities which seek to salvage dissenting histories and to preserve the possibility of alternative futures

Book Synopsis Almanac of African Peoples and Nations by : Mohamad Yakan
Download or read book Almanac of African Peoples and Nations written by Mohamad Yakan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-30 with total page 634 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The peoples of Africa are neither ethnically, culturally, nor religiously homogeneous. European colonial powers took little note of this reality in carving up the continent, a fact reflected in the periodic outbreak of civil war since decolonialization. Likewise, Western European models of development, whether in their liberal or Marxist manifestations, have so far failed to meet African development needs. The path to stability in Africa is through its people's character and goals. Almanac of African Peoples and Nations provides an essential guide to the major ethnic groups of the African continent, highlighting the major contributions and basic features of each.The Almanac reviews Africa's language families and their respective national and geographic concentrations, explaining ethnic classification based on linguistic difference and including language groups that are not indigenous to Africa. The major African peoples are then listed by country with a statistical breakdown on their respective shares in the total population of each country and maps indicating their concentration. The major section of the volume includes a comprehensive listing and descriptive profile of each ethnic, national, and tribal group detailing their history, customs, economic systems, and political and social organizations. The Almanac points out as well which groups support revisionist political aspirations and shows the internal and external pressures they are subject to. Yakan notes that African societies are not highly integrated and must support multitudes of influential sub-cultures with conflicting agendas and loyalties. Arguing that tribalism reflects Africa's historical experience and cultural heritage, he sees the resolution of the continent's problems in consociational democracy, proportional representation, federalism, or some form of autonomous rule.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Native African Races and Culture We are glad to add to the Occasional Papers published by the Trustees of the John F. Slater Fund this brief treatment of a large and difficult subject. It seems to me that Dr. Johnson has handled the matter not only clearly and concisely but very interestingly. In spite of the increasing number of publications the general ignorance of most of us in America in regard to Africa is as dense and dark as the great Continent was once supposed to be. I know how great was my ignorance of the history and present conditions of the Negro Peoples of Africa until a visit and consequent readings brought me some knowledge and many surprises. This publication is issued in the hope that it will help to increase or correct our knowledge and widen our view of a story which may be said to branch over to America.

Book Synopsis Africans in Britain by : David Killingray
Download or read book Africans in Britain written by David Killingray and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "There were Aftricans in Britain in Roman times but more numerously since the late sixteenth century. Today there are more than 200,000 Africans and many more people of African descent living in Britain. The record of African experiences and activities in Britain, both past and present, is a neglected but significant aspect of British history. It is of immediate relevance to Afro-British people but that history is not exclusive and belongs to all who live in these islands. As part of our common heritage it needs to be given a greater prominence in the school curriculum and in the market-place. This collection of essays looks at the history of African people in Braitain mainly over the past 200 years. Individual chapters focus on African writers in the eighteenth century, Afro-British men and women transported to Australia, the Kru community in Liverpool, African political activities particularly in the West African Students' Union, the part played by African students at Scottish and English universities, African service in the Royal Air Force during the Second World War, the formative post-war years spent by Kwame Nkrumah in London, and the impact of Tshekedi Khama's exile on British politics." --back cover

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Native African Races and Culture But it is in the most rudimentary adjustments to climate and geographic peculiarities that the genius of the native races is shown. Dowd tells how the Bushmen, living in the waterless Kalahari desert and having often to go without water for sev eral days, made even this environment yield them liquid. When they came to the dried bed of a river or pond, in pursuit of game, they would take a long reed and make a primitive filter by tying long grass around one end of this tube. They would then push the filter end as deep as possible into the muddy soil, allowing the water to slowly penetrate the filter. The water would then be drawn up by suction and discharged into an egg shell. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
