520 8 |a Adeleke deconstructs Afrocentric essentialism by illuminating and interrogating the problematic situation of Africa as the foundation of a racialised worldwide African Diaspora. It attempts to fill an intellectual gap by analysing the contradictions in representations of Afrocentrism in Africa. These include multiple, conflicting, and ambivalent portraits of Africa; the use of the continent as a global, unifying identity for all blacks; the de-emphasising and nullification of New World acculturation; and the ahistoristic construction of a monolithic African Diaspora worldwide.
