From the late nineteenth century through the 1960s, activists worked across borders of race and nation to push both countries toward achieving their democratic principles. At the heart of this shared struggle, African Americans and Indians forged bonds ranging from statements of sympathy to coordinated acts of solidarity. Within these two groups, certain activists developed a colored cosmopolitanism, a vision of the world that transcended traditional racial distinctions. These men and women agitated for the freedom of the "(Bcolored world," even while challenging the meanings of both color and freedom. Colored Cosmopolitanism is the first detailed examination of both ends of this transnational encounter. Nico Slate tells the stories of neglected historical figures, like the "(BEurasian" scholar Cedric Dover, and offers a stunning glimpse of people we thought we knew. Prominent figures such as Mahatma Gandhi, Jawaharlal Nehru, Swami Vivekananda, Booker T. Washington, W. E. B. Du Bois, and Martin Luther King Jr. emerge as never before seen. Slate reveals the full gamut of this exchange--from selective appropriations, to blatant misunderstandings, to a profound empathy--as African Americans and South Asians sought a united front against racism, imperialism, and other forms of oppression. 001399575 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001399575 650_0 $$aAfrican Americans$$xRelations with East Indians. 001399575 650_0 $$aRacism$$zUnited States$$xHistory. 001399575 650_0 $$aRacism$$zIndia$$xHistory. 001399575 650_0 $$aAfrican Americans$$xCivil rights$$xHistory. 001399575 650_0 $$aMinorities$$xCivil rights$$zIndia$$xHistory. 001399575 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xRace relations$$xHistory. 001399575 651_0 $$aIndia$$xRace relations$$xHistory. 001399575 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xRelations$$zIndia. 001399575 651_0 $$aIndia$$xRelations$$zUnited States. 001399575 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aSlate, Nico.$$tColored cosmopolitanism.$$dCambridge, Mass. : Harvard University Press, c2012$$z9780674059672$$w(DLC) 2011013395$$w(OCoLC)709670297 001399575 85280 $$bebk$$hProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete 001399575 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://site.ebrary.com/lib/usiricelib/Doc?id=10524466$$zOnline Access 001399575 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:458666$$pGLOBAL_SET 001399575 980__ $$aEBOOK 001399575 980__ $$aBIB 001399575 982__ $$aEbook 001399575 983__ $$aOnline
