Textul de pe ultima copertă
"This anthology explores the works of prominent African-centered leaders and is a significant contribution to the bibliographical collection on African heroes and heroines in the humanities and the social sciences. The way the luminaries are featured in this volume promotes a brand of Afrocentricity not often found in diasporic literature. The authors meticulously explore how the featured Black Thinkers responded to anecdotal attitudes or to misperceptions about African peoples and their historic societal contributions."
—Dr. Ciyata Dinah Coleman, former Associate Professor, Clark Atlanta University, Atlanta, Georgia, USA
This book argues that just as the ideas of Pan-Africanism birthed by Henry Sylvester-Williams and others in the late 1800s and Negritude ushered by Aimé Césaire and others in the early 1900s emboldened many major Black thinkers to push for independence across Africa, so will these early thinkers’ ideas help in the building of a new Africa. The various chapters explore the proposition that the thoughts of early great Diaspora Black thinkers are still wellsprings of tenets that can be used to build a new Africa. The chapters examine how these thinkers conceptualized Africa in their works, with the main objective of delineating their conceptualizations to generate suggestions on how to build a new Africa.
