Klappentext
A timely and compelling collection of twenty essays exploring the evolving landscape of Africana Studies in the twenty-first century.
Rooted in the radical legacy of the nation's first Black Studies department, established in 1968 at San Francisco State University, this collection of essays brings together leading voices to engage with the most urgent issues facing people of African descent today.
Drawing from the foundational mission of Africana Studies as a liberatory and community-centered discipline, contributors critically examine how Africana Studies continues to grow as a body of knowledge, theory, and methodology rooted in an African-centered worldview. With sections such as An Afrocentric Approach to Education , Africana Studies in the Digital World , Gendering and Queering Africana Studies , Africana Family Studies , Africana Health and Wellness , and Africana Social Science Research , the book offers a wide-ranging but cohesive exploration of new perspectives, current debates, and future directions in the discipline.
Twenty unique essays address the essential questions: What are the contemporary approaches and innovations shaping Africana Studies? How do Africana Studies scholars address modern challenges while staying grounded in the discipline's original commitment to racial justice, community empowerment, and social transformation?
