First published in 1995, I Am Because We Are has been recognized as
a major, canon-defining anthology and adopted as a text in a wide
variety of college and university courses. Bringing together
writings by prominent black thinkers from Africa, the Caribbean,
and North America, Fred Lee Hord and Jonathan Scott Lee made the
case for a tradition of ""relational humanism"" distinct from the
philosophical preoccupations of the West. Over the past twenty
years, however, new scholarly research has uncovered other
contributions to the discipline now generally known as ""Africana
philosophy"" that were not included in the original volume. In this
revised and expanded edition, Hord and Lee build on the strengths
of the earlier anthology while enriching the selection of readings
to bring the text into the twenty-first century. In a new
introduction, the editors reflect on the key arguments of the
book's central thesis, refining them in light of more recent
philosophical discourse. This edition includes important new
readings by Kwame Gyekye, Oyèrónké Oy ewùmí, Paget Henry,
Sylvia Wynter, Toni Morrison, Charles Mills, and Tommy Curry, as
well as extensive suggestions for further reading.
