The African Diaspora - Historical Analyses, Poetic Verses, and Pedagogy (REVISED FIRST EDITION) (Paperback)

Studying the African Diaspora can be a complex and sometimes difficult experience for students. The complexity of the subject matter demands broad, thematic or regionally structured content. Instructors are faced with the challenge of making history come alive in the classroom, while intermeshing the complex political, economic, and social aspects of the African experiences.
"The African Diaspora: Historical Analysis, Poetic Verses, and Pedagogy" draws upon the years of classroom experience to deliver diverse pedagogical and modeling tools beyond the traditional lecture and texts analyses. The historical texts and rendition of poems selected for this book are designed to aid students' comprehension of the complex nature of the Africana world. This is a unique text that is ideal for coursing covering World History, African Diaspora, African Literature, and the African and African-American experience.
