Reading the Black German Experience: An Introduction

Abstract

This special issue represents an important opportunity to present an American audience with critical insights into the situation of a black European community whose history has, until recently, gone largely overlooked in scholarly engagement with the African Diaspora in the US. The cultural and political formation of the Black German community provides a rich site for exploring the dynamics of the African Diaspora. As the essays collected here demonstrate, the Black German experience adds a new dimension to existing modes of articulating the tensions of diasporic relation—at once affirming, contesting and rearticulating these complex positionings.
