Specificatii
Brazilian-African Diaspora in Ghana is a fresh approach,
challenging both pre-existing and established notions of the
African Diaspora by engaging new regions, conceptualizations, and
articulations that move the field forward. This book examines the
untold story of freed slaves from Brazil who thrived socially,
culturally, and economically despite the challenges they
encountered after they settled in Ghana. Kwame Essien goes beyond
the one-dimensional approach that only focuses on British
abolitionists' funding of freed slaves' resettlements in Africa.
The new interpretation of reverse migrations examines the paradox
of freedom in discussing how emancipated Brazilian-Africans came
under threat from British colonial officials who introduced
stringent land ordinances that deprived the freed Brazilian-
Africans from owning land, particularly Brazilian land. Essien
considers anew contention between the returnees and other entities
that were simultaneously vying for control over social, political,
commercial, and religious spaces in Accra and tackles the fluidity
of memory and how it continues to shape Ghana's history. The
ongoing search for lost connections with the support of the
Brazilian government--inspiring multiple generations of Tabom
(offspring of the returnees) to travel across the Atlantic and
back, especially in the last decade--illustrates the unending
nature of the transatlantic diaspora journey and its impacts.
