  • Author : Shobana Shankar
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2021-12-01
  • ISBN : 0197644058
  • Pages : 219 pages

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 The Peppers  Cracklings  and Knots of Wool Cookbook

Download or read book The Peppers Cracklings and Knots of Wool Cookbook written by Diane M. Spivey and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2000-09-07 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fifteen years in the making, this book emerges as a new approach to presenting culinary information. It showcases a myriad of sumptuous, mouth-watering recipes comprising the many commonalities in ingredients and methods of food preparation of people of color from various parts of the globe. This powerful book traces and documents the continent's agricultural and mineral prosperity and the strong role played by ancient explorers, merchants, and travelers from Africa's east and west coasts in making lasting culinary and cultural marks on the United States, the Caribbean, Peru, Brazil, Mexico, India, and Southeast Asia. Groundbreaking in its treatment of heritage survival in African and African American cooking, this illuminating book broadens the scope of cuisine as it examines its historical relationship to a host of subjects—including music, advertising, sexual exploitation, and publishing. Provocative in its perspective, The Peppers, Cracklings, and Knots of Wool Cookbook dispels the long-standing misnomer that African cuisine is primitive, unsophisticated or simply non-existent, and serves as a reference in understanding how Africa's contributions continue to mark our cuisine and culture today.

Book Prejudice  Discrimination and Racism against Africans and Siddhis in India

Download or read book Prejudice Discrimination and Racism against Africans and Siddhis in India written by Ibrahima Diallo and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2020-04-03 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Africa and India have a long history of people-to-people contact, as well as cultural, educational and economic exchanges based on mutual interests. They also share imperial and post-imperial experiences. The longstanding relations between the two continents experienced a new twist and a giant leap forward following the Africa-India summit in 2008. However, recently a series of violent incidents against the growing sub-Saharan African communities in India has taken centre stage and made global news headlines: the Indian and international media have portrayed violent and deadly assaults on sub-Saharan Africans in India as prejudice, discrimination, and racism. This book provides a collection of studies that examine prejudice, discrimination, and racism towards Blackness in India with a special focus on the lived experiences of sub-Saharan Africans and Siddhis (Afro-Indians). In addition, the topics in this volume cover ideological, cultural, and linguistic affinities between Africa and India. The volume is divided into four parts of two chapters each: the first two chapters introduce the focus of the book on sub-Saharan Africans living in India. These are followed by two contributions that examine prejudice, discrimination, and racism towards Africans and Siddhis. Two further essays theorise prejudice and racism in India and the ways they are experienced by sub-Saharan Africans and Siddhis. The final two chapters of the book explore ideological, linguistic, and cultural affinities between India and Africa. The volume also features contributions by two prominent Africanists. The Foreword is written by Professor Souleymane Bachir Diagne, the Director of the Institute of African Studies at Columbia University. Professor Diagne was awarded the Edouard Glissant Prize for his work in 2011 and the Frantz Fanon Lifetime Achievement Award in 2018. The Afterword is authored by Professor Aparajita Biswas, the former Director of the Centre for African Studies at the University of Mumbai and the current President of the African Studies Association of India. Professor Biswas is one of India’s most respected Africanists with an extensive publication record on African topics and numerous teaching, research and fellowship positions in universities across the world.

Book Encyclopedia of the African Diaspora  3 volumes

Download or read book Encyclopedia of the African Diaspora 3 volumes written by Carole Boyce Davies and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2008-07-29 with total page 1269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authoritative source for information on the people, places, and events of the African Diaspora, spanning five continents and five centuries. The field of African Diaspora studies is rapidly growing. Until now there was no single, authoritative source for information on this broad, complex discipline. Drawing on the work of over 300 scholars, this encyclopedia fills that void. Now the researcher, from high school level up, can go to a single reference for information on the historical, political, economic, and cultural relations between people of African descent and the rest of the world community. Five hundred years of relocation and dislocation, of assimilation and separation have produced a rich tapestry of history and culture into which are woven people, places, and events. This authoritative, accessible work picks out the strands of the tapestry, telling the story of diverse peoples, separated by time and distance, but retaining a commonality of origin and experience. Organized in A–Z sections covering global topics, country of origin, and destination country, the work is designed for easy use by all.

  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 141 pages

Download or read book Sacred Serpent written by AJ Carmichael and published by AJ CARMICHAEL. This book was released on 2024-01-07 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book frequently returns to the theme of duality, particularly in relation to the serpent and the sun. In addition to signifying danger, dishonesty, and death, the serpent also symbolizes rebirth, transformation, and healing. In a similar vein, the sun represents both harshness and destruction in addition to life, energy, and growth. The investigation of this duality implies that knowledge of these two facets is necessary to comprehend both the natural world and the human predicament. The distinction between mythology and historical truth is becoming increasingly hazy, demonstrating how actual occurrences and cultures have shaped myths and legends and how those have, in turn, influenced them. It is argued that myths are more than just fantastic stories; rather, they have deep roots in societal advancements and human experiences. This emphasizes how crucial mythology is to how we perceive the world and ourselves. The book explores the symbolic meanings of the sun and serpent in psychology. Based on Carl Jung's theories of archetypes and the collective unconscious it clarifies why these symbols are so universally recognizable and appealing. The symbols are believed to resonate with deeply ingrained psychological concepts and experiences that everyone shares, making them useful tools for reflection and understanding of behavior in others. Numerous studies conducted in a range of cultural contexts highlight the idea that human belief systems are both universal and diverse. The book provides examples of how various societies have integrated and understood the symbols of the sun and the serpent in ways that are particular to their own historical settings and cultural norms. This demonstrates the diversity of human expression in culture and the interdependence of human societies.
