The Predicament of Blackness. Postcolonial Ghana and the Politics of Race, Paperback/Jemima Pierre

Tackles the question of race in West Africa through its postcolonial manifestations. Challenging the view of the African continent as a nonracialized space, the author envisions Africa, and in particular the nation of Ghana, as a place whose local relationships are deeply informed by global structures of race, economics, and politics.
