Routledge Racial Structure and Radical Politics in African Diaspora

Explore the complex dynamics of racial theory and relations with this volume from the Africana Studies series by Routledge. This book provides a deep look into multicultural and polarized religions, while examining the development of African personality and culture. It follows the series tradition of looking at the connections between Africa and the rest of the world. Readers gain historical perspective through specific studies, such as Beth Johnson's look at the Binga Bank. This section covers the bank's opening, its founder, and the role the institution played in stimulating the Black metropolis in Chicago. Additionally, the text includes "Black on the Block," which examines life within the North Kenwood-Oakland community in California. This volume serves as a significant resource for those studying anthropology, sociology, and the historical development of the African Diaspora.
