The Afro-Brazilian Mind: Contemporary Afro-Brazilian Literary and Cultural Criticism
This multilingual reader brings together literary and cultural critics from Africa, Europe, and the Americas to validate and re-evaluate the legitimacy of Afro-Brazilian studies and culture as a field of academic inquiry worthy of canonical inclusion.

Issues addressed include race relations, Afro-Atlantic Diaspora, gender, sexuality, identity formation, cultural diversity, performance, and popular culture. Contributors are Kim Butler, Henry Drewal, Anani Dzidzienyo, Steven White, Carolyn Richardson Durham, Joel Zito Araújo, Edimilson de Almeida Pereira, Cuti (Luiz Silva), Zilá Bernd, Niyi Afolabi, Cheryl Sterling, Emanuelle Oliveira, Bolaji Campbell, Lesley Feracho, Moema Parente Augel, Ronald Augusto, Dawn Duke, Maria Nazareth Fonseca, Eduardo de Assis Duarte, Márcio Barbosa, Manuel GarcÃa Castellón, Fábio Durão, and John Rex Gadzekpo.
