About the Author Akwujo Emejulu is professor of sociology at the University of Warwick.
In imagining a future outside the neocolonial frames and practices of contemporary Europe, this book explores a variety of critical spaces including motherhood and the home, friendships and intimate relationships, activism and community, and literature, dance, and film.
Deeply aware that they are constructed as "others" living in a racialized and hierarchical continent, the contributors explore gender, class, sexuality, and legal status to show that they are both invisible--presumed to be absent from and irrelevant to European societies--and hyper-visible, assumed to be passive and sexualized, angry and irrational.
