What Roots? Which Routes? -- Where is Africa in the Nation? History as Transformative Praxis -- Ritual Encounters and Performative Moments -- From Candomb�l to Carnaval: The Transformation of Ritual into Public Performance and Discourse -- Aesthetically Black: The Articulation of Blackness in the Black Arts Movement and Quilombhoje -- Performing Bodies Performing Blackness Performing Self: The Quest for a Transformative Poiesis -- Centering Blackness: Hip Hop and the Outing of Marginality -- Uma Luta que Nos Transcende.

Questions of Africanness and blackness rim the Afro-Brazilian sphere of interaction. What is Africa? How is it constructed by Afro-Brazilians? What do these constructions accomplish? How are they reflected in the national character? And how do these constructs lend themselves to ideations of blackness? In fact, what exactly is blackness, given that Brazil is a hybrid nation in both its ethnic composition and cultural modalities? This book examines the field cultural and racial representation by Afro-Brazilians in Candomb�l culture, public rituals, carnival, plays, poetry and hip-hop videography, to reposition Afro-Brazilians in the framework of Brazil's social and political processes.
