Sarah C. Dunstan constructs a narrative of black struggles for
rights and citizenship that spans most of the twentieth century,
encompassing a wide range of people and movements from France and
the United States, the French Caribbean and African colonies. She
explores how black scholars and activists grappled with the
connections between culture, race and citizenship and access to
rights, mapping African American and Francophone black intellectual
collaborations from the Paris Peace Conference in 1919 to the March
on Washington in 1963. Connecting the independent archives of black
activist organizations within America and France with those of
international institutions such as the League of Nations, the
United Nations and the Comintern, Dunstan situates key black
intellectuals in a transnational framework. She reveals how
questions of race and nation intersected across national and
imperial borders and illuminates the ways in which black
intellectuals simultaneously constituted and reconfigured notions
of Western civilization.
