Maboula Soumahoro is one of this year's guest curators of Read My World festival. The festival takes place from 11-13 september in the Tolhuistuin in Amsterdam. The line-up is amazing, check it out here.
In this highly original book, Maboula Soumahoro explores the cultural and political vastness of the Black Atlantic, where Africa, Europe, and the Americas were tied together by the brutal realities of the slave trade and colonialism. 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.
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.
Paperback | 140 pages | ISBN 9781509548330
