Black resistance in the Americas

All across the US in the last few years, there has been a resurgence of black protest against structural racism and other forms of racial injustice.

This book draws attention to this renewed energy and how this theme of resistance intersects with other communities of black people around the world.

It examines in depth stories of resistance against slavery, narratives of resistance in African American, Afro-Caribbean, and Afro-Latin American Literature, resistance in politics, education, religion, music, dance, and film, exploring a range of new perspectives from established and emerging researchers on black communities.
