In the easy moments and when everything is going well, everyone is your friend; and in difficult moments the true enemies are revealed. This has been the political lesson of the Republic of Equatorial Guinea in its small project of a modern nation in central Africa. This small African nation has become in recent decades in the crosshairs of locals and strangers. On the one hand, not only is it the only Spanish-speaking African country, but its abundant natural resources, mainly oil and gas, have caused the country to come out of oblivion after a ruthless Spanish colonization. This is the True History of Africa, of Obiang Nguema Mbasogo, President of the Republic of Equatorial Guinea.

The impact of the African Diaspora in Spanish America is far greater than is understood or acknowledged in the English speaking world. Connected initially to the Spanish-Caribbean through trans-Atlantic slavery, Africa is so deeply ingrained in the biology and culture of these countries that, in the words of the Cuban poet Nicolas Guillen, it would require the work of a 'miniaturist to disentangle that hieroglyph.' Through complex explorations of narratives of Spanish Blacks in the Caribbean this collection of essays builds critically on mid and late twentieth century Afro-Hispanist scholarship and thereby amplifies the terms in which Africans in the Americas are generally discussed. Each of these essays deals with a pivotal aspect of the African experience in the Spanish speaking Caribbean from the period of slavery to the present day. The essays focus on Black African cultures in Cuba, Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic as well as in the circum Caribbean areas of Mexico and Colombia. In the process they cover a vast and highly involved range of issues including abolition and the politics of anti-slavery rhetoric, African women's political activism, performance poetry and female embodiment of the Black Diaspora, the Cuban Revolution and its investment in African liberation struggles, race and intra-Caribbean migration, ritualised spirituality and African healing practices among others. Through their investigation of both official and popular cultures in the Caribbean not only do the essays in this volume show the indispensable functions of African cultural capital in the Spanish speaking Caribbean but they also underline the multiple demographic, socio-political and institutional imperatives that are at stake in considering contemporary understandings of the African Diaspora.

Hewitt (Spanish and Portuguese, Pennsylvania State U.) explores the representation of Africa and "Afro-Caribbean-ness" in Spanish Caribbean literature of the 20th century. Her main argument "is that the literary representation of Africa and "Africanness," meaning practices, belief systems, music, art, myths, popular knowledge, in Spanish-speaking Caribbean societies, constructs a self-referential discourse in which Africa and African "things" shift to a Caribbean landscape as the site of the (M)Other." Or, in other words, these representations imaginatively rescue and simultaneously construct a "Caribbean cultural imaginary conceived as the Other within that associates Africa with a cultural womb." Among the texts she explores are Fernando Ortiz's interpretations of the "Black Carnival" in Cuba, the early Afro-Cuban poems of Alejo Carpentier, the Afro-Cuban stories of Lydia Cabrera, a number of literary representations of the figure of the runaway slave, and two works by Puerto Rican novelist Edgardo Rodiguez Julia.

Diasporic Identities within Afro-Hispanic and African Contexts explores the complexities underlying the identity formation of peoples of African ancestry in the Spanish-speaking world and of expatriate immigrants who inhabit colonized territories in Africa. Although current diaspora studies provide provocative perspectives on migration that have various cultural, national, political and economic implications, any engagement of the subject readily runs into theoretical and practical challenges. At stake here is the question of finding an ideal conceptualization of diaspora. Should the term be limited to migration that is purely voluntary or to a traumatic exile? What about generational differences that, invariably, impact the imagining of diaspora? How does diaspora relate to creolization, hybridity and transculturation? This volume does not argue for what constitutes a proper diaspora, but rather re-contextualizes the concept of diaspora from the point of view of identity formation on the basis of voluntary and non-voluntary migration. The essays gathered together here engage with the unified topic of identity, but radiate a stimulating variety in geographic coverage – examining countries such as Cuba, Nicaragua, Morocco, Angola, and Spain – and in thematic approach – from religion to a poetics of self-affirmation to issues of political conflict, subalternity and migration.

Something incredible happens when we decide to change our lives and dedicate our effort, our struggle, to make the majority, our fellow citizens and contemporaries aware of the crude and avoidable reality of a degrading political and social system. One of the great myths that the settlers and murderers have popularized about Acacio Mañe Ela is that ''he is of Cameroonian origin''. Well, perhaps this little book does not have enough space to remember that the continental lands that now form the interior of the territories that later the settler invaders called Spanish Guinea, Cameroon, Gabon and Congo mainly, were the lands of the kingdom of the Fang for the most part, and of sister tribes that inhabited the same areas. All the Fang have their genealogical and geographical origin in these peoples formed by families that were extended throughout the ages and gave rise to the different family clans that can be traced back to common ancestors; so the colonial invasion did not do any favor in this sense, to anyone. In fact and until today, the inhabitants and settlers of the border areas between Equatorial Guinea, Cameroon and Gabon are practically the same families, speaking the same language and with a common culture, making those geopolitical barriers and borders nothing but an ironic joke of destiny, like colonialism. Like many African independence heroes, Don Acacio Mañe Ela was an exceptional man, the star of a Nation. Don Acacio came from one of those villages, on the side of the now extinct ''Spanish Guinea'' and Spain suffered greatly with the loss of its African lands, something that was never contemplated, let alone ceding independence to those Africans but, once again, destiny always imposes its plans. A careful observation based on the facts reveals the dire consequences of colonial imperialism in the contemporary and post-colonial history of Equatorial Guinea. The historical reality of this young African nation has always been influenced by the former metropolis, not in vain is it today the only Spanish-speaking country in Africa in the midst of French and English speaking countries. Equatorial Guinea, in order to stop being the former Spanish Guinea, arose from the desire of the native peoples of the territories that today form the country to revolt, in a long process of clandestine struggle and suppression that became more visible from the late fifties of the twentieth century. And one of the first to initiate such an uprising was Don Acacio Mañe Elá. In that process many lost their lives and unfortunately the autonomic government or of independence transition organized by Spain in its soon to be ex-African colony only served to break the unity among the natives because, the election of Francisco Masías as the ''great triumph of the National Independence'' only brought a great shadow over the history of the country, the first of a journey of misfortunes and chaos. Many like Masías and the new class of supposed leaders who reaped the political and historical benefit of independence, never really fought for it, but they were good opportunists. Don Acacio Mañe was above all, a man of God by profession and faith, a good Christian and Patriot. He was betrayed and assassinated, and neither history nor the Equatoguinean government has formally demanded explanations and responsibilities from the Spanish government, but the people can and should always demand it. Not even a billion books will be able to capture the effect of the loss of a great leader like Don Acacio Mañe Ela in the history of Equatorial Guinea, therefore, this book is nothing more than a brief prologue in the history of a Star, the Star of Equatorial Guinea. Thank you for reading these lines. Javier Clemente Engonga. 14.09.2021
