The Last "Darky"

Bert Williams, Black-on-Black Minstrelsy, and the African Diaspora
Langbeschreibung
"With theoretical verve and archival aplomb, Louis Chude-Sokei explores an open secret that we too often have preferred to ignore: the central role of black minstrelsy in the origins of the Harlem Renaissance. Starting with the simple fact of Bert Williams's Caribbean origins, he finds the multiple layers of masquerade in any performance of 'race.' A timely, often profound portrait of the dynamics of intraracial difference in diaspora."--Brent Hayes Edwards, author of "The Practice of Diaspora "
