After the pioneers, the second generation of African American
anthropologists trained in the late 1950s and 1960s. Expected to
study their own or similar cultures, these scholars often focused
on the African diaspora but in some cases they also ranged further
afield both geographically and intellectually. Yet their work
remains largely unknown to colleagues and students. This volume
collects intellectual biographies of fifteen accomplished African
American anthropologists of the era. The authors explore the
scholars' diverse backgrounds and interests and look at their
groundbreaking methodologies, ethnographies, and theories. They
also place their subjects within their tumultuous times, when
antiracism and anticolonialism transformed the field and the
emergence of ideas around racial vindication brought forth new
worldviews. Scholars profiled: George Clement Bond, Johnnetta B.
Cole, James Lowell Gibbs Jr., Vera Mae Green, John Langston
Gwaltney, Ira E. Harrison, Delmos Jones, Diane K. Lewis, Claudia
Mitchell-Kernan, Oliver Osborne, Anselme Remy, William Alfred
Shack, Audrey Smedley, Niara Sudarkasa, and Charles Preston Warren
