Gentle handling wear. Issued without a dust jacket. -- This volume provides a collection of personal narratives, scholarly essays, and artistic works exploring the experiences of the post-war generation of Black Germans, often referred to as "occupation children." It focuses on the transatlantic connections and perspectives of individuals born to African American soldiers and white German mothers in the aftermath of World War II. The work examines the complex processes of identity formation, the lived experience of racism and belonging in Germany, and the significance of connections to African American culture and the US Civil Rights Movement. It serves as a key text in Black German studies, giving voice to a generation that has navigated a unique position within German society and the broader African diaspora. N° de réf. du vendeur 011268

Hardback. Etat : New. This volume was originally published in German in 2015, commemorating the end of World War II seventy years earlier and acknowledging the contribution of African American soldiers to Germany's liberation from fascist rule.

In this volume, Black Germans of this post-war generation relate and analyse their experiences from various perspectives. Historical, political and research essays alongside life writing, interviews and literary texts form a kaleidoscope through which a new perspective on an almost forgotten part of German history and US American-German relationships is conveyed. The collection explores causes and consequences of racism in the past and in the present as well as developing strategies for achieving positive changes. N° de réf. du vendeur LU-9781788746885
