Caste, The Origins of Our Discontents
In 2020 Isabel Wilkerson, Pulitzer prize-winning journalist, published Caste, The Origins of Our Discontents. An African American, she used the age-old hierarchy of India to hold up a light to the hierarchical ‘racial’ orders in the United States (Nazi Germany was included as a third case). Ever since the 1940s debate has raged over whether such a comparison is apt. In the United States, more than almost any other group, African Americans are in-…
Gregg Mitman and Sarita Siegel, dirs. The Land beneath Our Feet
This is a well-done documentary on the vexed question of land rights in Liberia. The central question is who owns what in a nation in which the majority still live off the land. The colors are lush and the people disposed to civil debate; one can almost forget that twenty years ago Liberia was the scene of years of bloody civil strife. The Land beneath Our Feet interviews village elders, female bureaucrats, young members of the urban middle class…

Brothers and Strangers
Brothers and Strangers
Ethiopia was independent, but too feudal to present a blueprint for the future.Liberia, ''founded'' by returnees from the African Diaspora in the early nineteenth century, seemed to meet all the desiderata of a national home, a land of ''strong bronze men, or regal black.''However, sadly, it was in the Black Republic that the poesy of trans-Atlantic longing ran headlong into African sociopolitical reality-including slavery.Garvey's plan to merge …

Equatorial Guinea
The troubled history of Equatorial Guinea reflects, in many ways, the history of other developing nations. Among the newest of postcolonial nations, Equatorial Guinea has suffered political instability and the resulting economic dislocation. The state-sponsored terror under the regime of first president Francisco Macias Nguema forced many to flee, leaving the economy, long dependent on the cocoa plantation system, in shambles. Dr. Sundiata traces…

A History of Africa
The Roots of African Despotism
Early in this decade a political observer, looking at one of Africa's least known and most sanguinary states, described Equatorial Guinea as “Cambodia minus ideology” (Pelissier, 1980:13). During the eleven year presidency (1968-1979) of Francisco Macias Nguema, up to half of the population was liquidated or went into exile. Little is known on the internal workings or ideology of the regime. However, just as we can no longer say that there are pe…
Late Twentieth Century Patterns of Race Relations in Brazil and the United States
Slavery from Roman Times to the Early Transatlantic Trade
Twentieth Century Reflections on Death in Zanzibar
At times the expansion of capital has been misinterpreted as a literal acting-out of Marx and Engels's image of capital inevitably pushing all before it.1 Obviously, nineteenth-century capital did expand and conquer the farther regions of the world. Yet, as Walter Rodney has pointed out, the advance of capital was impeded and molded by the physical environment, as well as by class struggle and intraclass conflict.2 A simplistic view of the relati…

Cuba Africana”
In the nineteenth century Cuba was the focus of Spain's overseas commercial involvement. The Cuban sugar boom keep alive an otherwise moribund and truncated empire. Spain's interest in Cuban sugar brought her into a web of trade contacts stretching to the other side of the Atlantic. Sugar production still required the exploitation of black labor; Spain, whose trade in West Africa had been minimal in the eighteenth century, became, through the pre…
