Imprensa negra no Brasil do século XIX
Ao longo do século XIX, indivíduos e grupos negros letrados criaram espaços na imprensa para tratar dos assuntos que consideravam importantes e expor suas ideias sobre os rumos do país. Experiências cotidianas e variadas de enfrentamento do racismo, a criação de redes de sociabilidade e o uso de instrumentos legais para promover a cidadania foram registradas nas páginas de jornais assinados por "homens de cor" e dirigidos a eles. Ao ressaltar momentos marcantes da imprensa negra oitocentista, este livro debate as formas de resistência negra e contribui para o enfrentamento da discriminação racial no Brasil. Num momento em que nosso país depara com temas polêmicos, como o Estatuto da Igualdade Racial e as cotas em universidades, a Coleção Consciência em Debate pretende discutir assuntos prementes que interessam não somente aos movimentos negros como a todos os brasileiros. Fundamental para educadores, pesquisadores, militantes e estudantes de todos os níveis de ensino. Coordenação de Vera Lúcia Benedito.
Escritos De Liberdade
Luiz Gama, Machado de Assis, José do Patrocínio e mais um grande número de gente livre "de cor" buscaram conquistar e manter espaços no debate público sobre os rumos do país, bem como atuaram na defesa da cidadania de pessoas negras livres, libertas e escravizadas. Indo de encontro às cotidianas práticas de "preconceito de cor" e "ódio de raça", fizeram da atuação em jornais um meio estratégico para a criação de formas de resistência, de confronto, mas também de diálogo. Este livro apresenta um estudo detalhado sobre as articulações diretas e indiretas realizadas por homens negros, livres e letrados atuantes no cenário político-cultural das cidades de São Paulo e do Rio de Janeiro na segunda metade do século XIX.
The Boundaries of Freedom

Pensadores negros - Pensadoras negras
Esta coletânea apresenta textos de pesquisadores/as das áreas de História, Literatura, Antropologia, Sociologia e Geografia sobre trajetórias de um conjunto de pensadores/as negros/as brasileiros/as, levando em conta suas experiências com a racialização e o racismo ao longo dos séculos XIX e XX. Composto por dezenove artigos e uma entrevista, o livro oferece um apanhado de abordagens que evidenciam como esses/as pensadores/as, a partir de lugares e modos diversos, lidaram com as manifestações da discriminação racial nos âmbitos individual, político, intelectual, artístico, acadêmico e/ou cotidiano. O mosaico daí resultante permite vislumbrar a importância desses sujeitos e da questão racial nos debates sobre as dinâmicas de produção e reprodução de cultura na sociedade brasileira. Coloca-se, portanto, em fina sintonia com os esforços para que a implementação das Leis n. 10.639/2003 e n. 11.645/2008 contribua para que o pensar e o fazer a história deste país ocorram de forma mais plural e democrática.
Press, Power, and Culture in Imperial Brazil
Press, Power, and Culture in Imperial Brazil introduces recent Brazilian scholarship to English-language readers, providing fresh perspectives on newspaper and periodical culture in the Brazilian empire from 1822 to 1889. Through a multifaceted exploration of the periodical press, contributors to this volume offer new insights into the workings of Brazilian power, culture, and public life. Collectively arguing that newspapers are contested projects rather than stable recordings of daily life, individual chapters demonstrate how the periodical press played a prominent role in creating and contesting hierarchies of race, gender, class, and culture. Contributors challenge traditional views of newspapers and magazines as mechanisms of state- and nation-building. Rather, the scholars in this volume view them as integral to current debates over the nature of Brazil. Including perspectives from Brazil's leading scholars of the periodical press, this volume will be the starting point for future scholarship on print culture for years to come.
Voices of the Race
Voices of the Race offers English translations of more than one hundred articles published in Black newspapers in Argentina, Brazil, Cuba, and Uruguay from 1870 to 1960. Those publications were as important in Black community and intellectual life in Latin America as African American newspapers were in the United States, yet they are almost completely unknown to English-language readers. Expertly curated, the articles are organized into chapters centered on themes that emerged in the Black press: politics and citizenship, racism and anti-racism, family and education, community life, women, Africa and African culture, diaspora and Black internationalism, and arts and literature. Each chapter includes an introduction explaining how discussions on those topics evolved over time, and a list of questions to provoke further reflection. Each article is carefully edited and annotated; footnotes and a glossary explain names, events, and other references that will be unfamiliar to English-language readers. A unique, fascinating insight into the rich body of Black cultural and intellectual production across Latin America.
Routledge Handbook of Afro-Latin American Studies
This Handbook provides a comprehensive roadmap to the burgeoning area of Afro-Latin American Studies. Afro-Latins as a civilization developed during the period of slavery, obtaining cultural contributions from Indigenous and European worlds, while today they are enriched by new social configurations derived from contemporary migrations from Africa. The essays collected in this volume speak to scientific production that has been promoted in the region from the humanities and social sciences with the aim of understanding the phenomenon of the African diaspora as a specific civilizing element. With contributions from world-leading figures in their fields overseen by an eminent international editorial board, this Handbook features original, authoritative articles organized in four coherent parts: • Disciplinary Studies; • Problem Focused Fields; • Regional and Country Approaches; • Pioneers of Afro-Latin American Studies. The Routledge Handbook of Afro-Latin American Studies will not only serve as the major reference text in the area of Afro-Latin American Studies but will also provide the agenda for future new research.
The Dialectic Is in the Sea
Collected writings by one of the most influential Black Brazilian intellectuals of the twentieth century Beatriz Nascimento (1942–1995) was a poet, historian, artist, and political leader in Brazil’s Black movement, an innovative and creative thinker whose work offers a radical reimagining of gender, space, politics, and spirituality around the Atlantic and across the Black diaspora. Her powerful voice still resonates today, reflecting a deep commitment to political organizing, revisionist historiography, and the lived experience of Black women. The Dialectic Is in the Sea is the first English-language collection of writings by this vitally important figure in the global tradition of Bla...
Mestizaje and Globalization
Mestizaje and Globalization contributes to an emerging multidisciplinary effort to explore how identities are imposed, negotiated, and reconstructed. The volume offers a comprehensive and empirically diverse collection of insights that look beyond nationalistic mestizaje projects to a diversity of local concepts, understandings, and resistance, with particular attention to cases in Latin America and the United States.
Mayaya Rising
Who are the Black heroines of Latin America and the Caribbean? Where do we turn for models of transcendence among women of African ancestry in the region? In answer to the historical dearth of such exemplars, Mayaya Rising explores and celebrates the work of writers who intentionally center powerful female cultural archetypes. In this inventive analysis, Duke proposes three case studies and a corresponding womanist methodology through which to study and rediscover these figures. The musical Cuban-Dominican sisters and former slaves Teodora and Micaela Ginés inspired Aida Cartagena Portalatin’s epic poem Yania tierra; the Nicaraguan matriarch of the May Pole, “Miss Lizzie,” figures prominently in four anthologies from the country’s Bluefields region; and the iconic palenqueras of Cartagena, Colombia are magnified in the work of poets María Teresa Ramírez Neiva and Mirian Díaz Pérez. In elevating these figures and foregrounding these works, Duke restores and repairs the scholarly record.
