Among the contributors is Emeka Okereke, whose essay, “Photography and Trans-Africanism: A Story of Journeys,” appears as Chapter 27. Drawing from his long-standing involvement with the Invisible Borders Trans-African Project, Okereke explores the intersections of photography and trans-African experiences. His essay provides insight into the underlying concepts, methodologies, and inklings that shape the idea of Trans-Africanism.
The book is described as “a remarkable and ambitious attempt in introducing a different, refreshing way to present some of the current, urgent conversations about photography — one that is multi-directional, polycentric and collaborative.”
“In response to widespread demand for more knowledge and insight about contemporary photographies beyond Western centres of production and dissemination, this volume provides a transnational discussion, grounded in dialogue between authors and editors from diverse locations and contexts.”
“This groundbreaking collection is an essential resource for academics and students working in or with photography, contextual studies, history, and theory, but also media and cultural studies more broadly.”
Congratulations to all the contributors, and the editors, Lucy Soutter and Duncan Wooldridge.
While the book is currently available as a hardback, interested readers can also access and download the pdf version of all 37 chapters for FREE. Click the link below to download the book.
