TY - GEN T1 - Remapping Black Germany : new perspectives on Afro-German history, politics, and culture A2 - Lennox, Sara LA - English PP - Amherst PB - University of Massachusetts Press YR - 2016 UL - https://ebooks.jgu.edu.in/Record/ebsco_acadsubs_on1012233626 AB - "In 1984 at the Free University of Berlin, the African American poet Audre Lorde asked her Black, German-speaking women students about their identities. The women revealed that they had no common term to describe themselves and had until then lacked a way to identify their shared interests and concerns. Out of Lorde's seminar emerged both the term 'Afro-German' ('Black German') and the 1986 publication of the volume that appeared in English translation as 'Showing Our Colors: Afro-German Women Speak Out'. The book launched a movement that has since catalyzed activism and scholarship in Germany."-- OP - 303 CN - DD78.B55 R46 2016eb SN - 9781613764657 SN - 1613764650 SN - 9781625342317 SN - 1625342314 SN - 9781625342300 SN - 1625342306 KW - Black people : Germany : History.
