Robbie Aitken and Eve Rosenhaft follow the careers of Africans arriving from the colonies, examining why and where they settled, their working lives and their political activities, and giving unprecedented attention to gender, sexuality and the challenges of 'mixed marriage'. Addressing the networks through which individuals constituted community, Aitken and Rosenhaft explore the ways in which these relationships spread beyond ties of kinship and birthplace to constitute communities as 'black'. The study also follows a number of its protagonists to France and back to Africa, providing new insights into the roots of Francophone black consciousness and postcolonial memory. Including an in-depth account of the impact of Nazism and its aftermath, this book offers a fresh critical perspective on narratives of 'race' in German history.Black peopleGermanyHistoryBlack peopleGermanySocial conditionsCamerooniansGermanyHistoryAfricansGermanyHistoryGermanyRace relationsHistoryGermanyEmigration and immigrationGermanyColoniesAfricaEmigration and immigrationCameroonEmigration and immigrationBlack peopleHistory.Black peopleSocial conditions.CamerooniansHistory.AfricansHistory.305.896043Aitken Robbie John Macvicar1481865Rosenhaft Eve1951-UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910787768203321Black Germany3699134UNINA
