内容简介
 · · · · · ·

During the Cold War, several prominent African American radical activist-intellectuals—including W.E.B. and Shirley Graham Du Bois, journalist William Worthy, Marxist feminist Vicki Garvin, and freedom fighters Mabel and Robert Williams—traveled and lived in China. There, they used a variety of media to express their solidarity with Chinese communism and to redefine the relationship between Asian struggles against imperialism and black American movements against social, racial, and economic injustice. In The East Is Black, Taj Frazier examines the ways in which these figures and the Chinese government embraced the idea of shared struggle against U.S. policies at home and abroad. He analyzes their diverse cultural output (newsletters, print journalism, radio broadcasts, political cartoons, lectures, and documentaries) to document how they imagined communist China’s role within a broader vision of a worldwide anticapitalist coalition against racism and imperialism.

评论 ······

不太理解一个并不复杂的事，怎么被学术制造成这么复杂（非常Duke的风格了）！分析框架大于历史了。史实上对我来说没有什么新的东西，主要聚集于四个case studies。比较有启发的是关于the politics of seeing的讨论, 可以联动关于Tong Lam等人的the sentimentalism in social survey/以及tourism本身也是一个不尽客观的知识生产过程。…

题目很好，但对于这套符号imagination的老方法真的太厌倦了。

性别方面的论述应该还可以

读的时候正好是十月份，看看国内在发生什么再看看书里这些foreign traveller的imagination就挺生气的。
