Beskrivning
Reflecting on contemporary epistemologies of European Blackness   Long absent from research in the humanities and social sciences, Black people in continental Europe have become the focus of a growing body of literature in the past two decades that addresses their unique history and social positioning. Black Studies in Europe: An Anthology of Soil and Seeds brings together essays and case studies by a collective of scholars, writers, and activists to offer a critical overview of the emerging field of Black European studies and a vital reflection on contemporary epistemologies of European Blackness. This collection addresses key questions: What is Blackness from a European standpoint? Which epistemologies and theoretical tools have been used to offer a better understanding of Black experiences in Europe? How is this knowledge being produced and by whom? Can we define a common European conceptual framework for Black studies? Related to this work is an even more urgent enterprise: forging an epistemological distinction between the study of Black people and “Black studies” as an emancipatory project.

Recensioner i media

“Black Studies in Europe is a much awaited and needed volume that dismantles the epistemological violence of institutionalized paradigms, policies, and practices that have long omitted, silenced, invisibilized, and thereby disfigured Black life in Europe and European academies. This timely and distinct collection invites readers to engage with new perspectives, abiding diasporic tensions, and power-expertise-knowledge politics while elucidating not only the ‘inevitability’ but also the undeniability of Black studies in Europe, a viable field that enriches our understanding of the intellectual history, lived experiences, and futures of Black peoples in those geographies.” —Trica Keaton, Dartmouth College
