This book provides important aspects of African diasporic experiences, covering the mass
\nmovement of Africans to Asia, Europe, and the United States of America, the resistance to the
\nepistemic violence caused by slavery and slave revolts, and the survival of African culture in the
\nDiaspora. The book also explores the role of arts in fostering development as well as the influence
\nof slavery and religion on Africans. Given the contradictions that continue to define African
\nexperiences in the global capitalist system, the book offers some alternative points of departure.<\/p>\n
