In the first book to focus on African American attitudes toward Japan and China, Marc Gallicchio examines the rise and fall of black internationalism in the first half of the twentieth century. This daring new approach to world politics failed in its effort to seek solidarity with the two Asian countries, but it succeeded in rallying black Americans in the struggle for civil rights. Black internationalism emphasized the role of race or color in world politics and linked the domestic struggle of African Americans with the freedom struggle of emerging nations "of color," such as India and much of Africa. In the early twentieth century, black internationalists, including W. E. B. Du Bois and Marcus Garvey, embraced Japan as a potential champion of the darker races, despite Japan's imperialism in China. After Pearl Harbor, black internationalists reversed their position and identified Nationalist China as an ally in the war against racism. In the end, black internationalism was unsuccessful as an interpretation of international affairs. The failed quest for alliances with Japan and China, Gallicchio argues, foreshadowed the difficulty black Americans would encounter in seeking redress for American racism in the international arena.

This book was written as a means to teach how important it is to understand the way other cultures live; without a true understanding of the diversity that is between cultures, it can result in conflict and misunderstandings. This book is meant to be an aid to the reader about how to show compassion and truly care about one another; not caring about any differences in skin tone, hair, or dialect, it is about what is on the inside that makes the person whom we really are. When we think of others and behave toward them in the same manner we want them to act towards us, this is when we truly do our part in making the world a better place to live. The coming pages of this book are going to show you, the reader, just what it takes to learn how to study and live in a foreign country. How to get along in a culture that doesn't really understand about the ethnicity you come from; and how you can do your part to learn about the culture and ethnic beliefs of the country you are about to embark upon. The first step is to learn about "culture adaptation." What some like to refer to as "culture shock" isn't really shocking at all--it is just an uneasiness felt when coming face-to-face with an ethnic group that we don't completely understand. This uneasiness goes away as we familiarize ourselves with the people and learn about their culture. When we choose to study abroad in a land that is far from home, we must make every effort to remember we are visitors in their home, and we must respect and learn how to abide by their customs and value system. Remember that the baggage we carry to a foreign country isn't just the luggage that holds our clothing and personal belongings that we brought with us from home; we also carry an invisible baggage which is our "cultural baggage." This cultural baggage is the values and behavior you bring with you that is common to people of your culture. If you are in touch with your own cultural beliefs, you will be able to see how different they are to the culture of the people you are visiting, and this will help you in understanding how to get along with and adapt to the differences. When in a different land from our home, we need to realize that the things we think are "normal" may not be perceived as such to the people we are visiting. Try to read as much information as you can find available on the country and its people before you step foot on the soil of a foreign land. By doing so, you will familiarize yourself with the customs and beliefs of the people you will be living with.

What images come to mind when the words "Asians," "Asian Americans" and "African Americans" are mentioned? Do the images revolve around negative racial stereotypes of the various groups, beginning with a portrait of African Americans, as "noncitizens," and as "discredited outlaws," as noted by Nobel Prize Laureate Toni Morrison in her categorization of "race talk"? Conversely, when images of Asians are conjured, is what comes to mind a picture of pig-tailed Chinese immigrants, along with recent Asian newcomers, eager to maintain social distance from discredited black outlaws? Do the images, which the groups often carry of one another, extend to their histories of shared diminished racial status and stereotyping, recalling a period in history when a significant segment of African American men were mocked as "George," "Sam" and "Rastus," and Chinese immigrants were ridiculed as "John." How have these images shaped relations between the groups? Are there elements of commonality between Blacks and Asians in America? What historical forces have shaped their interactions? This volume, edited by Hazel M. McFerson, brings together a diverse group of scholars to address these questions. Their chapters are as diverse as their backgrounds, yet they all contribute without pessimism or naivete to a view of the varied interactions, which symbolized the crossings, commonality and conflict between Asians and African Americans during different periods, and to their prospects for future interactions. This book is divided into three parts. Part I examines relations dating from the mid-18th century to the late 1940s. Part II of the book examines contemporary issues and explores changes in Asian and Asian American communities and outlooks often characterized by "race talk and social distance" from African Americans. Part III of the book focuses on the international dimension of Asian/African American interactions and crossings. The book concludes with an assessment of the implications for contemporary economic interests and solidarity in Africa and Asia today.

East Meets Black examines the making and remaking of race and masculinity through the racialization of Asian and black men, confronting this important white stratagem to secure class and racial privilege, wealth, and status in the post-civil rights era. Indeed Asian and black men in neoliberal America are cast by white supremacy as oppositional. Through this opposition in the US racial hierarchy, Chong Chon-Smith argues that Asian and black men are positioned along binaries brain/body, diligent/lazy, nerd/criminal, culture/ genetics, student/convict, and technocrat/athlete--in what he terms "racial magnetism." Via this concept, East Meets Black traces the national conversations that oppose black and Asian masculinities, but also the Afro-Asian counterpoints in literature, film, popular sport, hip-hop music, performance arts, and internet subcultures. Chon-Smith highlights the spectacle and performance of baseball players such as Ichiro Suzuki within global multiculturalism and the racially coded controversy between Yao Ming and Shaquille O'Neal in transnational basketball. Further, he assesses the prominence of martial arts buddy films such as Romeo Must Die and Rush Hour that produce Afro-Asian solidarity in mainstream Hollywood cinema. Finally, Chon-Smith explores how the Afro-Asian cultural fusions in hip-hop open up possibilities for the creation of alternative subcultures, to disrupt myths of black pathology and the Asian model minority. In this first interdisciplinary book on Asian and black masculinities in literature and popular culture, Chon-Smith explores the inspiring, contradictory, hostile, resonant, and unarticulated ways in which the formation of Asian and black racial masculinity has affected contemporary America.

The Image of the Black in African and Asian Art asks how the black figure was depicted by artists from the non-Western world. Beginning with ancient Egyptâe"positioned properly as part of African historyâe"this volume focuses on the figure of the black as rendered by artists from Africa, East Asia, and the Indian subcontinent. The aesthetic traditions illustrated here are as diverse as the political and social histories of these regions. From Igbo Mbari sculptures to modern photography from Mali, from Indian miniatures to Japanese prints, African and Asian artists portrayed the black body in ways distinct from the European tradition, even as they engaged with Western art through the colonial encounter and the forces of globalization. This volume complements the vision of art patrons Dominique and Jean de Menil who, during the 1960s, founded an image archive to collect the ways that people of African descent have been represented in Western art from the ancient world to modern times. A halfâe century later, Harvard University Press and the Hutchins Center for African and African American Research completed the historic publication of The Image of the Black in Western Artâe"ten books in totalâe"beginning with Egyptian antiquities and concluding with images that span the twentieth century. The Image of the Black in African and Asian Art reinvigorates the de Menil familyâe(tm)s original mission and reorients the study of the black body with a new focus on Africa and Asia.
