Aerial Archives of Race

African American Cultural Expressions and the Black Nuclear Pacific

Omschrijving

"In a triumph of transnational research, Etsuko Taketani delivers a deeply satisfying account of how aerial mapping inspired artists as varied as Langston Hughes, Lorraine Hansberry, Josephine Baker, and Theodor Seuss Geisel."--Judith Pascoe, author of On the Bullet Train with Emily Brontë "Wuthering Heights" in Japan "With her expert analysis of Malcolm X, NAACP leaders, Langston Hughes, and Lorraine Hansberry--among others--combined with her adroit interrogation of visuality, Etsuko Taketani has elevated scholarship in diverse fields, particularly African American Studies and the field in which she has pioneered: the Black Pacific."--Gerald Horne, author of Facing the Rising Sun: African Americans, Japan, and the Rise of Afro-Asian Solidarity "Etsuko Taketani's aerial worlds are a constant surprise. Mapping the space she calls the Black nuclear Pacific, Taketani develops a highly specific account of planetary imaginaries at a time of shifting state power. The result is a thrilling panorama of historical detail and speculative insight."--Kate Marshall, author of Novels by Aliens: Weird Tales and the Twenty-First Century
