"Black Music of Two Worlds is a classic text showing the vast influence of African music on musical cultures throughout the world. First published in 1972, the book forecast today's interest in world music and the cross-pollination of musical cultures. In this new edition, the author has thoroughly revisited the text, adding new information about recent musical styles. The book begins with a study of African roots, and then shows how these musics were preserved and transformed on the North American continent, in the Caribbean, and in South and Central America. It then traces the flow of musical styles back from the New World to Africa. This is the only book to show the pervasive influence of African styles on a wide variety of musics, from traditional folk and blues to jazz to salsa, calypso, reggae, and rap. Book jacket."--Jacket

Revealing the central yet intentionally obliterated role of Africa in the creation of modernity, Born in Blackness vitally reframes our understanding of world history. Traditional accounts of the making of the modern world afford a place of primacy to European history. Some credit the fifteenth-century Age of Discovery and the maritime connection it established between West and East; others the accidental unearthing of the “New World.” Still others point to the development of the scientific method, or the spread of Judeo-Christian beliefs; and so on, ad infinitum. The history of Africa, by contrast, has long been relegated to the remote outskirts of our global story. What if, instead, we put Africa and Africans at the very center of our thinking about the origins of modernity? In a sweeping narrative spanning more than six centuries, Howard W. French does just that, for Born in Blackness vitally reframes the story of medieval and emerging Africa, demonstrating how the economic ascendancy of Europe, the anchoring of democracy in the West, and the fulfillment of so-called Enlightenment ideals all grew out of Europe’s dehumanizing engagement with the “dark” continent. In fact, French reveals, the first impetus for the Age of Discovery was not—as we are so often told, even today—Europe’s yearning for ties with Asia, but rather its centuries-old desire to forge a trade in gold with legendarily rich Black societies sequestered away in the heart of West Africa. Creating a historical narrative that begins with the commencement of commercial relations between Portugal and Africa in the fifteenth century and ends with the onset of World War II, Born in Blackness interweaves precise historical detail with poignant, personal reportage. In so doing, it dramatically retrieves the lives of major African historical figures, from the unimaginably rich medieval emperors who traded with the Near East and beyond, to the Kongo sovereigns who heroically battled seventeenth-century European powers, to the ex-slaves who liberated Haitians from bondage and profoundly altered the course of American history. While French cogently demonstrates the centrality of Africa to the rise of the modern world, Born in Blackness becomes, at the same time, a far more significant narrative, one that reveals a long-concealed history of trivialization and, more often, elision in depictions of African history throughout the last five hundred years. As French shows, the achievements of sovereign African nations and their now-far-flung peoples have time and again been etiolated and deliberately erased from modern history. As the West ascended, their stories—siloed and piecemeal—were swept into secluded corners, thus setting the stage for the hagiographic “rise of the West” theories that have endured to this day. “Capacious and compelling” (Laurent Dubois), Born in Blackness is epic history on the grand scale. In the lofty tradition of bold, revisionist narratives, it reframes the story of gold and tobacco, sugar and cotton—and of the greatest “commodity” of them all, the twelve million people who were brought in chains from Africa to the “New World,” whose reclaimed lives shed a harsh light on our present world.

Between Two Worlds: Jean Price-Mars, Haiti, and Africa is a special volume on Jean Price-Mars that reassesses the importance of his thought and legacy, and the implications of his ideas in the twenty-first century’s culture of political correctness, the continuing challenge of race and racism, and imperial hegemony in the modern world. Price-Mars’s thought is also significant for the renewed scholarly interests in Haiti and Haitian Studies in North America, and the meaning of contemporary Africa in the world today. This volume explores various dimensions in Price-Mars’ thought and his role as historian, anthropologist, cultural critic, public intellectual, religious scholar, pan-Africanist, and humanist. The goal of this book is fourfold: it explores the contributions of Jean Price-Mars to Haitian history and culture, it studies Price-Mars’ engagement with Western history and the problem of the “racist narrative,” it interprets Price-Mars’ connections with Black Internationalism, Harlem Renaissance, and the Negritude Movement, and finally, the book underscores Price-Mars’ contributions to post colonialism, religious studies, Africana Studies, and Pan-Africanism.

Immigrant homes shouldn't be war-zones-they should be places of cultural and intergenerational harmony and diversity! Two Worlds at War: Finding Common Cultural Grounds for African Immigrant Parents and Their Children explores the life of the African immigrant family and opens your eyes to the interweaving worlds of different cultures and generations. With insightful wisdom concerning cultural differences, authors George M. Portuphy, DMin, and Cynthia Adom-Portuphy, PhD, help you identify the nature of these differences so you can understand the tension they create and how to bridge the cultural and generational gap with a blended approach. Discover how patience, tolerance, and effective cross-cultural communication can help parents and children come to understand each other's needs, and learn the importance of parenting with an authentic love based on biblical truth. Within these pages, you'll be inspired by the stories, perspectives, and life experiences of immigrant parents and their first-generation children. Two Worlds at War also shares with African immigrant youth how they can grow together with their parents, even when they come from worlds that are miles apart. REV. GEORGE MIKE PORTUPHY (D.MIN) and MRS. CYNTHIA ADOM-PORTUPHY (PH.D) have served in various Christian leadership capacities for the past twenty-five years. Their service spans across the youth and older first-generation immigrant churches in the Church of Pentecost. Currently, Rev. Dr. Portuphy partners in ministry with his beloved wife as the National Leader for the students and professional wing of the church in the United States, and the resident minister, Rehoboth Pentecost International Worship Center, Wayne, NJ. Some of their greatest passions include investing in the next generation of young people. They are blessed with three lovely children, Valerie-Lois, Verna-Michelle, and Vince-Mike.

It's a historical account of African people and their imprint on the development of every society throughout history. It's significant contribution to the study of race, and race-relations, with a highly advanced input and scholarly impressive understanding for students of all ages. It examines Africa's participation in the development of China's first dynasty, Dravidian India, ancient Greek civilizations, and Europe's medieval economy. Readers are introduced to unknown advanced African societies throughout the Middle East and Meso-america's ancient Olmecs, the predecessors of all Native American, or Amerindian civilizations. The detail research focuses on the abolition of slavery worldwide and on the long lasting avenues blacks have traveled in search of freedom, equal rights, and justice throughout the Americas, and the lack of economic power still existent in Latin America and the Caribbean. Africans In The Americas (Our Footprints Throughout The World) identifies our history and outlines solutions that yield enlightenment to all. It is brilliantly written to the understanding of readers of all ages and races. It's primary purpose is to educate and inspire the black youth of today, who do not know that their roots grows deeper than their immediate surroundings and stretches far beyond other civilizations across the globe.
