| Abstract |
"The Long Emancipation is a mediation on the question of freedom for Black people globally. Taking as its starting point emancipation in the US and the British Caribbean, the volume argues that wherever Black people have been emancipated from slavery and colonization that a potential freedom became thwarted. Taking examples from across the globe, The Long Emancipation posits that Black people globally live in the time of emancipation and that emancipation is definitely not freedom"-- Provided by publisher. |
