Each of these spaces has its own way of reading the Black body and the Black experience and its own modes of visibility invisibility silence and amplification of Black life. By weaving together her personal history with that of France and its abiding myth of color - blindness Maboula Soumahoro highlights the banality and persistence of structural racism in France today and shows that freedom will be found in the journey and movement between the sites of the Atlantic triangle. Africana is the name of that freedom. How can we build and reflect on a collective diasporic identity through a personal journey? What are the limits and possibilities of this endeavor when the personal journey is that of oft - erased bodies and stories de - humanized lives and when Black populations in Africa the Americas and Europe identify and misidentify with each other their sensibilities shaped by the particular locales in which their lives unfold? This book makes an important intellectual contribution to contemporary public conversations and theoretical inquiry into race racism blackness and identity today as it probes and questions the academic methodologies that have functioned as structures of exclusion.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: Black Is The Journey Africana The Name\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Soumahoro Maboula\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: John Wiley And Sons Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9781509548330\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 140 Pages\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 3\/7\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\nSeries: Critical South\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Society \u0026amp; Culture: General","brand":"Soumahoro Maboula","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49617783161137,"sku":"IN-G-9781509548330","price":17.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9781509548330.jpg?v=1724687569","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9781509548330-black-is-the-journey-africana-the-name","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
