Black Everyday Lives, Material Culture and Narrative Zusammenfassung

Black Everyday Lives, Material Culture and Narrative: Tings in de House Shawn-Naphtali Sobers

This book is timely, being produced in a timespan where the first generation of Windrush era arrivals are now in their late 70s and older, a generation which are sadly decreasing.

This is an engaging and accessible read, using the house as the framework to discuss Black British experience. It could have wider appeal for a general and popular audience - a book that plays into nostalgia but also has a more critical/intersectional approach

Including images from popular culture archives and images commissioned especially for the volume, this book acts both as a time capsule and a communicator, passing on embodied knowledge from the past, and protecting them for the future

Black Everyday Lives, Material Culture and Narrative Bewertungen

This is the only book that I've ever read that manages to capture how we really lived from day to day back in the day. It's a book like no other. Many of us have been waiting for a book like this. Ras Shawn-Naphtali has given the world a book that is intelligent, accessible, cultural, and lyrical, but true. This is a great contribution to the documentation of our history. This book did so much for me. It made me consider our struggles, our aspirations, and the art in our lives. - Professor Benjamin Zephaniah

Sobers uses his inclusive Small Anthropology creatively and incisively to show being and becoming of Black materiality in the home that speaks to us subjectively, intergenerationally, and cross culturally. - Dr Michael McMillan

Shawn-Naphtali Sobers presents an essential body of work and a must read primer for anyone interested in the significance of visual ethnography, anthropology, sociology, or interdisciplinary and mixed methodology. Shawn unapologetically renders the power of narrative, objects, and memory enmeshed within the realities of Black culture and history, transporting us into a state of consciousness that is indeed not burdened. - Dr Sireita Mullings
