Afrotopia: The Roots of African American Popular HistoryCambridge University Press, 13 սեպ, 1998 թ. - 313 էջ Afrocentrism and its history has long been disputed and controversial. In this important book, Wilson Moses presents a critical and nuanced view of the issues. Tracing the origins of Afrocentrism since the eighteenth-century, he examines the combination of various popular mythologies, some of them mystical and sentimental, others perfectly reasonable. A level presentation in what is often a shouting match, Afrocentrism, Antimodernism, and Utopia is a rich history of black intellectual life and the concept of race. |
