The Intellectual Roots of Contemporary Black Thought delves into the profound impact of the intellectual production of notable historical figures of Africa Diasporan Thought on social and political discourses concerning people of African descent. Adopting an internationalist perspective, this volume fosters cross-generational dialogues by engaging the philosophies of intellectuals and activists from diverse regions. It meticulously examines seminal publications from the 1700s to the late 1800s, including monographs, manifestos, speeches, and letters, analyzing their subsequent influence on the works of later thinkers and scholars of the 1900s. Anchored in qualitative and critical analysis, the work explores the extent to which the intellectual works of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries have shaped education and institutions over time, scrutinizing the multifaceted contemporary outcomes of historical practices through the theories of historical knowledge. The text includes excerpts and translations that engage readers in informed and meaningful interactions, delving into the philosophies of liberation, reparation, and rehabilitation. This book makes significant contributions to the fields of intellectual historiography, human rights, political philosophy, social thought, and critical race theory, appealing to students and scholars of history, politics, and philosophy alike.
