Download or read book Captured and Enslaved written by Alaba Ajiye and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2016-11-08 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Okiki was captured, chained, shacked, manacled, and whisked away from his ancestral village on the day one that his life ambition would have been fulfilled. He was cargo to servitude across the Atlantic Ocean. He escaped death by a whisker when he took part in the insurrection that attempted to set slaves free from chains during the perilous middle passage voyage that took him to a sugar plantation in Pernambuco. Soares was one of the slaves that trekked 1,870 kilometers to Calabouco from Pernambuco, both in Brazil, under grueling and callous condition after his masters decided to relocate to a bigger plantation far away from where they were to continue the inglorious trade. Later, he became an inheritance of his new slave master, who took him to Saint Michael, Barbados, in the Caribbean and finally to Charleston, South Carolina, USA, by his master, who appointed him valet and, subsequently, butler. Jackson Fey, a Yoruba slave enjoyed the largesse of freedom when the dastardly act was abolished. He chronicled personal events and happenings around him during his captivity in major slave plantations and documented them in a manuscript, where he described slavery as days of darkness and gloom, days of clouds and of thick darkness, as morning spread upon the mountains. This he also summarized in his native dialect, as Iparun Nla literary means the greatest destruction the world has ever witnessed in Yoruba. Steve McLaren, a Scottish scholar, was privileged to lay hands on the manuscript. He had a personal interaction and shared in the grief and feelings of what enslaved Africans went through, having been unsatisfied with the available materials a popular librarian offered him and the information he gathered personally on plantations. With misty eyes and pangs of horror, he recalled how the entire black African race was almost annihilated by European slave merchants, and Africans had to endured years of contempt and obloquy; some of those acts were rendered in mnemonic interjections captured by his feelings, emotionally delivered from the thought of victims. Albert McLaren carried on with the promise his great-grandfather gave to Jackson Fey, a freed slave, to continue activism against any form of slavery. He chronicled the history of sexual slavery, exposing the technicality of the traffickers ploy, and shared individual experiences of some captors, proffering solutions on how the world may conquer or mitigate sexual slavery and human trafficking. During one of his presentation, Linda Rowenski, sold into slavery by a family friend, gave her livid and loathsome testament in the hand of her ogre exactor, who the arm of the law caught up with in unprecedented vagaries.

Download or read book The Delectable Negro written by Vincent Woodard and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2014-06-27 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2015 LGBT Studies Award presented by the Lambda Literary Foundation Unearths connections between homoeroticism, cannibalism, and cultures of consumption in the context of American literature and US slave culture that has largely been ignored until now Scholars of US and transatlantic slavery have largely ignored or dismissed accusations that Black Americans were cannibalized. Vincent Woodard takes the enslaved person’s claims of human consumption seriously, focusing on both the literal starvation of the slave and the tropes of cannibalism on the part of the slaveholder, and further draws attention to the ways in which Blacks experienced their consumption as a fundamentally homoerotic occurrence. The Delectable Negro explores these connections between homoeroticism, cannibalism, and cultures of consumption in the context of American literature and US slave culture. Utilizing many staples of African American literature and culture, such as the slave narratives of Olaudah Equiano, Harriet Jacobs, and Frederick Douglass, as well as other less circulated materials like James L. Smith’s slave narrative, runaway slave advertisements, and numerous articles from Black newspapers published in the nineteenth century, Woodard traces the racial assumptions, political aspirations, gender codes, and philosophical frameworks that dictated both European and white American arousal towards Black males and hunger for Black male flesh. Woodard uses these texts to unpack how slaves struggled not only against social consumption, but also against endemic mechanisms of starvation and hunger designed to break them. He concludes with an examination of the controversial chain gang oral sex scene in Toni Morrison’s Beloved, suggesting that even at the end of the twentieth and beginning of the twenty-first century, we are still at a loss for language with which to describe Black male hunger within a plantation culture of consumption.

Download or read book AfroAsian Encounters written by Heike Raphael-Hernandez and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2006-11 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How might we understand yellowface performances by African Americans in 1930s swing adaptations of Gilbert and Sullivan's The Mikado, Paul Robeson's support of Asian and Asian American struggles, or the absorption of hip hop by Asian American youth culture?AfroAsian Encounters is the first anthology to look at the mutual influence of and relationships between members of the African and Asian diasporas in the Americas. While these two groups have often been thought of as occupying incommensurate, if not opposing, cultural and political positions, scholars from history, literature, media, and the visual arts here trace their interconnections and interactions, as well as how they have been set in opposition by white systems of racial domination. AfroAsian Encounters probes beyond popular culture to trace the historical lineage of these coalitions from the post-Civil War era through the present.From the history of Japanese jazz composers to the current popularity of black/Asian "buddy films" like Rush Hour, AfroAsian Encounters is a groundbreaking intervention into studies of race and ethnicity and a crucial look at the shifting meaning of race in America in the twenty-first century.
