From Ghanaian protests over Gandhi statues to American Vice President Kamala Harris's story, this relationship--notwithstanding moments of common struggle--seethes with conflicts that reveal how race reverberates throughout the modern world. Shobana Shankar's groundbreaking intellectual history tackles the controversial question of how Africans and Indians make and unmake their differences. Drawing on archival and oral sources from seven countries, she traces how economic tensions surrounding the Indian diaspora in East and Southern Africa collided with widening Indian networks in West Africa and the Black Atlantic, forcing a racial reckoning over the course of the twentieth century. While decolonization brought Africans and Indians together to challenge Euro-American white supremacy, discord over caste, religion, sex and skin color simmered beneath the rhetoric of Afro-Asian solidarity. This book examines the cultural movements, including Pan-Africanism and popular devotionalism, through which Africans and Indians made race consciousness, alongside economic cooperation, a moral priority. Yet rising wealth and nationalist amnesia now threaten this postcolonial ethos. Calls to dismantle statues, from Dakar to Delhi, are not mere symbolism. They express new solidarities which seek to salvage dissenting histories and to preserve the possibility of alternative futures." --$$cProvided by publisher. 001388180 650_7 $$aInternational relations.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst00977053 001388180 650_7 $$aRace relations.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01086509 001388180 651_0 $$aIndia$$xRelations$$zAfrica. 001388180 651_0 $$aAfrica$$xRelations$$zIndia. 001388180 651_0 $$aAfrica$$xRace relations. 001388180 651_0 $$aIndia$$xRace relations. 001388180 651_6 $$aAfrique$$0(CaQQLa)201-0098126$$xRelations$$0(CaQQLa)201-0375058$$zInde.$$0(CaQQLa)201-0482676 001388180 651_6 $$aAfrique$$0(CaQQLa)201-0098126$$xRelations raciales.$$0(CaQQLa)201-0380212 001388180 651_7 $$aAfrica.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01239509 001388180 651_7 $$aIndia.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01210276 001388180 830_0 $$aAfrican arguments. 001388180 852__ $$bgen$$hDS450.A35$$iS54 2021 001388180 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1388180$$pGLOBAL_SET 001388180 980__ $$aBIB 001388180 980__ $$aBOOK
