Recenzii

Although a chasm is sometimes presumed to exist between the two groups, this book reveals the two diasporas intersecting paths from the 19th century to the present day.--Publishers Weekly"Fred Ho and Bill V. Mullen have assembled a first-rate dossier of Afro-Asian work. It is equal parts lyrical and analytical. Flies like a butterfly; stings like a bee.--Vijay Prashad, author of Everybody Was Kung Fu Fighting: Afro-Asian Connections and the Myth of Cultural Purity"Afro Asia preserves and promotes critical thinking and activism in a global culture. Here, with incisive writings from diverse intellectuals, artists, and activists, Fred Ho and Bill V. Mullen make a vital contribution towards liberation praxis that challenges the perceived permanence of manufactured distrust and division.--Joy James, author of Shadowboxing: Representations of Black Feminist Politics
