Episodes of Everyday Racism - 6th Edition

Valutazione del libro

Maggiori informazioni sul libro

"Plantation Memories is a compilation of episodes of everyday racism written in the form of short psychoanalytical stories. From the question "Where do you come from?" to Hair Politics to the N-Word, the book is a strong, eloquent, and elaborate piece, which deconstruct the normality of everyday racism and exposes the violence of being placed as the Other. Released at the Berlin International Literature Festival (2008), soon the book became internationally acclaimed and part of numerous academic curricula. Known for her subversive practice of giving body, voice and image to her own texts, Kilomba adopted her book into a staged reading (2012) and video installation (2018). This fifth edition coincides with the 10th anniversary of the book release, celebrating Plantation Memories as an important contribution to the global cultural discourse." --taken from back cover.
