Het is een weinig bekend gegeven dat Frankrijk in de Eerste Wereldoorlog tienduizenden Afrikaanse mannen naar Europa heeft verscheept die moesten dienen in de geallieerde legers en later werden ingezet bij de bezetting van het Rijnland. Dit leidde toentertijd tot een fel en racistisch getint debat. Hoe kon Frankrijk ‘zwarte beesten’ loslaten op Duitsland? Door Afrikaanse soldaten in te zetten werd ‘het blanke ras verraden’ en werden ‘Duitse vrouwen aan brute verkrachters overgeleverd’. De zwarte schande laat zien hoe deze hetze werd opgezet en gestuurd door de Duitse autoriteiten. En hoe verging het de Afrikanen zelf? Dick van Galen Last beschrijft hun omgang met blanke officieren, Franse en Duitse burgers, en met elkaar, in de modder aan de Somme en in de kroegen van het Rijnland.

This book explores the 'Black Horror' campaign as an important chapter in the popularisation of racialised discourse in European history. Originating in early 1920s Germany, this international racist campaign was promoted through modern media, targeting French occupation troops from colonial Africa on German soil and using stereotypical images of 'racially primitive', sexually depraved black soldiers threatening and raping 'white women' in 1920s Germany to generate widespread public concern about their presence. The campaign became an international phenomenon in Post-WWI Europe, and had followers throughout Europe, the US and Australia. Wigger examines the campaign's combination of race, gender, nation and class as categories of social inclusion and exclusion, which led to the formation of a racist conglomerate of interlinked discriminations. Her book offers readers a rare insight into a widely forgotten chapter of popular racism in Europe, and sets out the benefits of a historically reflexive study of racialised discourse and its intersectionality.

Duitsland, 1918. Het einde van de Eerste Wereldoorlog, de Novemberrevolutie, de zege van de democratie. De jonge Republiek van Weimar had slechts vijftien jaar de tijd om zich te ontwikkelen voordat Adolf Hitler en zijn regime aan de macht kwamen. In cultureel en sociaal opzicht lukte dat op adembenemende wijze: Bauhaus en de nieuwe zakelijkheid domineerden architectuur en kunst, tradities werden ter discussie gesteld, de vrouwenemancipatie nam een hoge vlucht, nieuwe beroepen zagen het licht en het leven werd vrijer, ook op seksueel vlak. Er werden belangrijke sociale hervormingen doorgevoerd, alles moest anders: leven, denken en genderverhoudingen. En veel van toen oogt nu verbazingwekkend modern. Een groot deel van de Duitsers kon zich echter niet vinden in de veranderingen. Er was angst voor zedelijk verval, voor de heerschappij van het goedkope. Toen het geld opraakte en de toekomst steeds donkerder werd, openbaarde zich een diepe kloof in de maatschappij. ‘Zo werd dit decennium nog niet eerder beschreven [...] Zo goed, zo vernieuwend, zo spannend.’ – Süddeutsche Zeitung De pers over Jähners vorige boek Wolfstijd: ‘Stilistische zwier en oog voor detail.’ ***** – de Volkskrant ‘Een fascinerende geschiedenis [...] Een baanbrekend boek.’ ••••• – NRC

Rosey E. Pool (1905–71) did not live an ordinary life. She witnessed the rise of the Nazis in Berlin firsthand, tutored Anne Frank, operated in a Jewish resistance group, escaped from a Nazi transit camp, published African American poets in Europe, operated a London “salon” with her partner, witnessed independence movements in Nigeria and Senegal, and took part in the American civil rights movement. I Lay This Body Down is the first study of Pool and her remarkable transatlantic life. A translator, educator, and anthologist of African American poetry, Pool corresponded, after World War II, with Langston Hughes, W. E. B. Du Bois, Naomi Long Madgett, Owen Dodson, Gordon Heath, and others who fostered her involvement in the Black Arts Movement, both in Britain and the United States. Though Pool was often cast as an outsider—one poet was amazed that “one so removed” was interested in the Black cause—she saw herself as part of a transatlantic struggle against oppression. For Pool, the “yellow Jew stars” the Nazis forced her to wear “were our darker skins.” Rosey E. Pool’s life allows Lonneke Geerlings to explore intersections of European and American history. As a Holocaust survivor and activist fighting against segregation in the Deep South, Pool connects stories that are often studied and told in isolation. Her life helps us understand the intersecting histories of Jewish Europe and Black America, but it also allows us to see how Pool dealt with tragedy, trauma, and loss. At its core, this book is about resilience and hope. Indeed, Pool’s life illuminates the power of reinvention for dealing with both challenging personal circumstances and the traumas of global history.

During the first half of the twentieth century, European countries witnessed the arrival of hundreds of thousands of colonial soldiers fighting in European territory (First and Second World War and Spanish Civil War) and coming into contact with European society and culture. For many Europeans, these were the first instances in which they met Asians or Africans, and the presence of Indian, Indo-Chinese, Moluccan, Senegalese, Moroccan or Algerian soldiers in Europe did not go unnoticed. This book explores this experience as it relates to the returning soldiers - who often had difficulties re-adapting to their subordinate status at home - and on European authorities who for the first time had to accommodate large numbers of foreigners in their own territories, which in some ways would help shape later immigration policies.

This is a military-political history with a vital and all-pervading cultural and social theme which shapes the narrative - race, color and prejudice. But despite this, there is an extraordinary underlying theme of empire loyalty among serving soldiers - NCOs and private soldiers - and a growing grasp of political ideas and liberal democracy. And the loyalty to the British crown as an agent of the ending of slavery will be amazing to some readers. War experience was a powerful catalyst and contributed to a 'West Indianess' and desire for political advance. But even here the desire was for independence within the empire - a 'West Indian Dominion' as with 'elder sisters' of empire, the Dominions of Australia, Canada, New Zealand and South Africa. The political and economic status of the islands was a potent reason for the 'colored contingents' enlisting - work was scarce - but a major impetus was the cultural concept of 'manliness' and empire-status - shared by George V, who insisted, against government pressure, on allowing West Indians to serve with white British soldiers. But all were volunteers and not enlisted men. The West Indies Regiment was small and its contribution in action limited, and restricted largely to Egypt and Mesopotamia, and with limited service on the Western Front. But it shows vividly the ingrained racialism and color prejudice of British society and the British Army and above all, in the insensitive omission of the West Indies Regiment at the Victory Parade in 1919.

This book raises awareness of Eurocentrism’s enormous impact and shows how, over the course of five centuries, Eurocentrism has extended its power across the globe. In the twenty-first century, Eurocentrism’s hegemony remains powerful. By exploring a wide range of sources including Eurocentric maps and images, historiography, and Rudyard Kipling’s White Man’s Burden, Wintle uncovers Eurocentrism’s gradual evolution and reveals the ways in which it functions at both seen and unseen levels. Taking a thematic and then empirical approach, Eurocentrism offers a detailed and comprehensive discussion of Eurocentrism’s problems and dangers, pays special attention to the work of Samir Amin and James Blaut and applies notions garnered in the book to discuss Eurocentrism within the context of the twenty-first-century European Union. This study questions Eurocentrism’s function, its history, and its importance, providing a fresh insight into one of the world’s most complex and powerful cultural phenomena. With its multi- and interdisciplinary analysis, this book is an indispensable tool for both scholars and students concerned with modern history, politics, visual culture and political geography.

This collection offers a new reflection on rape in war time through 15 case studies, ranging from Greece to Nigeria. It questions the specificity of rape as a universal transgression, its place in memories of war, its legacies, including children born from rape, and the challenge of writing about intimate violence as both a scientist and a human.
