Artists, Performers, and Black Masculinity in the Haitian Diaspora (Blacks in the Diaspora)

by JanaEvansBraziel (Author)

Synopsis

Examines how Haitian diaspora writers, artists, and musicians address black masculinity through the Haitian Creole concept of gwo negs, or "big men". This work confronts the gendered, sexualized, and racialized boundaries of America's diaspora communities and openly resist "domestic" imperialism that targets immigrants, minorities, and gays.
