In them, Locke offers an Inter-American philosophical account of important contributions made by Afrodescendant peoples to the art, literature, and culture of various American societies. Locke offers a prescient vision of the intersection of the three Americas: Latin (South) America, the Caribbean, and North America. The book has two main parts: First, are the lectures, which all relate to the themes of black cultural contributions throughout the Americas, minority representation and marginalization in democratic contexts, the ethics of racial representation, the notion of cultural transformation and transparency, and the ethical issues involved in cross-cultural exchanges. The second portion of the book is a critical interpretive essay that elucidates the Inter-American philosophical significance of the lectures and their relevance to current philosophicaldiscussions. . 410 0$aAfrican American Philosophy and the African Diaspora,$x2945-6002 606 $aPolitical science$xPhilosophy 606 $aSocial sciences$xPhilosophy 606 $aAfrican Americans 606 $aCulture 606 $aAmerica$xHistory 606 $aRace 606 $aPolitical Philosophy 606 $aSocial Philosophy 606 $aAfrican American Culture 606 $aHistory of the Americas 606 $aRace and Ethnicity Studies 615 0$aPolitical science$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aSocial sciences$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aAfrican Americans. 615 0$aCulture. 615 0$aAmerica$xHistory. 615 0$aRace. 615 14$aPolitical Philosophy. 615 24$aSocial Philosophy. 615 24$aAfrican American Culture. 615 24$aHistory of the Americas. 615 24$aRace and Ethnicity Studies. 676 $a320.01 702 $aCarter$b Jacoby Adeshei$f1979- 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910136077203321 996 $aAfrican American Contributions to the Americas' Cultures$94400064 997 $aUNINA
