Most Western-driven theories do not have a place in Black
communicative experience, especially in Africa. Many scholars
interested in articulating and interrogating Black communication
scholarship are therefore at the crossroads of either having to use
Western-driven theory to explain a Black communication dynamic, or
have to use hypothetical rules to achieve their objectives, since
they cannot find compelling Black communication theories to use as
reference. Colonization and the African slave trade brought with it
assimilationist tendencies that have dealt a serious blow on the
cognition of most Blacks on the continent and abroad. As a result,
their interpersonal as well as in-group dialogic communication had
witnessed dramatic shifts. Black/Africana Communication Theory
assembles skilled communicologists who propose uniquely
Black-driven theories that stand the test of time. Throughout the
volume's fifteen chapters theories including but not limited to
Afrocentricity, Afro-Cultural Mulatto, Venerative Speech Theory,
Africana Symbolic Contextualism Theory,
HaramBuntu-Government-Diaspora Communications Theory, Consciencist
Communication Theory and Racial Democracy Effect Theory are
introduced and discussed.
