Description
This excerpt from a book discusses the new research that has been done on the African diaspora and how it has changed the way we view the cultures and people who were involved in the slave trade. The book includes nine papers that discuss different aspects of the diaspora.
As a result of new research, we can now paint a more complex picture of peoples and cultures in the south Atlantic, from the earliest period of the slave trade up to the present. The nine papers in this volume indicate that a dynamic and continuous movement of peoples east as well as west across the Atlantic forged diverse and vibrant re-inventions and re-interpretations of the rich mix of cultures represented by Africans and peoples of African descent on both continents.
