Contemporary Afro-Brazilian Short Fiction
Although Brazil is the largest Afro-descendant country outside of Africa, the literature produced by Black Brazilians is mostly unknown both in Brazil and abroad. There is a growing worldwide demand for Afro-descendant literature and a demand for decolonial practices and content, especially within Lusophone literature and literature across the Americas. Contemporary Afro-Brazilian Short Fiction emerges from a UCL-sponsored collaborative translation project, bridging Afro-Brazilian literature with a global audience to respond to the worldwide call for Afro-diasporic narratives. This unique compilation of 21 short stories includes both established and emerging Afro-Brazilian voices. The anthol...
Darkening Blackness
The concept of Afropessimism does not refer to Black people, but rather to the likelihood of white society overcoming its own negrophobia, and to a radical distrust in white narratives of inclusivity. What if the ideas and reforms we regard as progressive were just the new and shiny face of racism? In the time of Black Lives Matter, the unswerving dehumanization and killing of Black people form the bedrock of our civilization. But a vast anti-Black collective feeling also manifests itself as a more insidious shared unconscious, hidden from view by the doctrines we deem as emancipatory. This book challenges the simplistic and pacifying aspects of current African American thought. It puts forward alternatives to intersectionality, poststructuralism, and radical democracy, which are often prioritized in the Black analysis of race, gender, and class. Accessible, historically informed, and politically alert, this book offers a critical analysis of the groundbreaking theories and strategies that radically reimagine the future of Black lives throughout the world.

1492 Anacaona l'insurgée des Caraïbes
L’Europe et l’Amérique vivaient de part et d’autre de l’océan, chacun ignorant l’existence de l’autre, jusqu’à leur rencontre en 1492, quand Cristobal Colón découvre les Antilles. Anacaona règne alors sur un des royaumes d’Haïti. Elle et son peuple Taïno accueillent les Espagnols avec cordialité, amitié, respect. Mais les Espagnols mettent en place leur projet colonisateur : ils déstructurent la société Taïno, détruisent ses lieux de culte, lui imposent un nouveau mode de vie... Délibérément, ils exterminent un peuple et sa culture. Moins d’un siècle après cette Rencontre, les Taïnos ont totalement disparu d’Haïti et des Caraïbes – entraînant la ...
