BEFORE I AM HANGED

This is a full-length study of Kenule Saro-Wiwa, the Ogoni Minority and Human Rights activist who was judicially murdered on November 10, 1995. One remarkable feature of the essays selected for this volume is the intensity of each contributor's voice to the very controversial man whose judicial murder has come to signify the extent of misrule in Nigeria.

BEYOND TRADITION
African Women and Cultural SpacesEdited By Toyin Falola and S. U. Fwatshak
Beyond Tradition: African Women and Cultural Spaces contains twenty-three chapters that mirror the diversities in the lives and experiences of African women both within and outside the continent, in the public sphere and in the home-front. The book departs from earlier works based on its unique conceptualization, scope, and orientation. It is based on a multidisciplinary approach, as authors’ backgrounds range from history, literature, drama, religion, journalism, sociology/anthropology, philosophy, to geography. Old modes of analyzing issues of gender and women in Africa boxed in static and purely traditional frameworks are challenged, while including results of practical research traditions derived from the provision of formal education and advocacy.

It explores both the powerful forces of global capitalism and the world’s challenges to those forces by people who address systemic problems and suggests a broad range of possible dialogue among different communities. Capitalism is not simply commodifying the world: it is also increasingly marginalizing large sections of humankind.

BLACK AESTHETICS
Beauty and Culture: An Introduction to African and African Diaspora Philosophy of ArtsJohn Ayotunde Isola Bewaji
Since its original publication in 2003, Beauty and Culture has remained the only full-length major book contribution to the area of philosophy of art and aesthetics by an African philosopher. This is an area which has had very little or no critical systematic philosophical discussion from an African and African Diaspora perspective to date, either by African or African Diaspora thinkers or, for that matter, by non-African philosophers and intellectuals, leaving the assessment and discussion of African and Diaspora art and artistic experience to Euro-American intellectuals with scant or warped understanding of the sensitivities and sensibilities that under-gird the art they are commenting on

Examining Black Power and black capitalism, the student and radical movements, nationalists and integrationists, Allen argues that Black America, hemmed in by racism, constitutes an underdeveloped, domestic colony within the United States.

BLACK PEOPLE WHO MADE THE OLD WEST by William Loren Katz
From the earliest times, black men and women helped shape the frontier of this country. Yet, their participation in American history has often been neglected.

The experiences of these men and women provide new insight into our national heritage, and illuminate the kind of people who made this land. The text is illustrated with photographs from the author's private collection.

BLACK, WHITE, AND CHROME
The United States and Zimbabwe, 1953-1998Andrew DeRoche
This book examines the United States’ relations with Zimbabwe from the 1950s to the late 1990s and offers a new interpretation of the US role in facilitating the settlement that brought peace and independence in Zimbabwe in 1980. By revealing the increasing importance of race relations in U.S. foreign policy from the 1960s to the 1980s, DeRoche fills the wide gap in the written history of US relations with Southern Africa.
