From Josephine Baker's performances in the 1920s to the 1970s
solidarity campaigns for Angela Davis, from Audre Lorde as "mother"
of the Afro-German movement in the 1980s to the literary stardom of
1993 Nobel Laureate Toni Morrison, Germans have actively engaged
with African American women's art and activism throughout the 20th
century. The discursive strategies that have shaped the (West)
German reactions to African American women's social activism and
cultural work are examined in this study, which proposes not only a
nuanced understanding of African Americanizations as a form of
cultural exchange but also sheds new light on the role of African
American culture for (West) German society, culture, and national
identity.
