    Abstract: Using two case studies from different frontier regions in 19th-century America, this work reveals how marginalised ethnic and racial communities resisted the attempts of governing officials and investors to control them through capitalist economic and government frameworks. Looking at the economic systems of these regions, Christopher Fennell offers insight into the development of America's consumer economy.

    Abstract: "Jason Yaremko traces the movements and migrations of indigenous peoples from several regions of North America into the Caribbean basin, particularly to Cuba, during the Spanish colonial period. Yaremko argues that the history of the journeys of indigenous individuals, groups, and communities to Cuba--and their multifaceted and dynamic experiences of survival, adaptation, resistance, and negotiation of Cuban colonial society--has played an important but often unacknowledged role in identity formation in Cuban and Caribbean history"--Provided by publisher

    Abstract: The Bahamas in the post-emancipation period -- Bahamian society in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries: class, race, and ethnicity -- Gradual changes in the Bahamas, 1880-1914 -- World War I and prohibition -- The 1930s and the depression: tourism and restlessness -- World War II and the 1942 Nassau riot -- The formative years, 1950-1958: political organization, race, and protest -- The 1958 general strike and its aftermath -- Confronting a divided society
    Abstract: Saunders shows that, although the Bahamas had class tensions in common with other British colonial lands, Bahamian racial tensions were not necessarily parallel to those across the West Indies so much as they mirrored those occurring in the U.S., with power and/or money consolidated in the hands of the white minority. She examines the nature of the Bahamian race and class relations and interactions between dominant groups--from whites, to people who identified as creole or mixed race, to liberated Africans--between the 1880s and the early 1960s

    Abstract: America plantation sites are reluctant to show and interpret the homes and lives of the slaves that used to reside there in times of slavery. Mount Clare is one such site and Teresa Moyer examines the lives of its former slaves and the issues keeping these findings hidden. Raising questions about how race continues to affect the decisions made at historic sites, Moyer discovers that slaves at Mount Clare adopted the ceremonies of their owners while still exercising their freedoms of family and homeland culture

    Abstract: Being Jewish in Brazil--the world's largest Catholic country--is fraught with paradoxes, and living in São Paulo only amplifies these vivid contradictions. The metropolis is home to Jews from over 60 countries of origin, and to the Hebraica, the world's largest Jewish athletic and social club. Jewish identity is rooted in layered experiences of historical and contemporary dispersal and border crossings. Brazil is famously tolerant of difference but less understanding of longings for elsewhere. Celebrating both Carnival and the High Holidays is but one example of how Jews in São Paulo hold

    Abstract: "Rich with historical sketches of the life and experiences of slaves in Africa, on slave ships, and in Jamaica, this volume illustrates the way enslaved Africans lived and helped to shape Jamaican society in the three decades before British abolition of the slave trade. Audra Diptee's in-depth investigations reveal unexpected insights into the demographics of those captured in Africa and legally transported on British slave ships. For example, there is a commonly held belief that slave traders had a preference for adult males. In fact, the practicalities of slave raiding meant that women, children, and large groups of the elderly were particularly vulnerable during raids and were more often captured and made available for sale in the Caribbean. From Africa to Jamaica offers a new look at the Atlantic slave trade in its final years, fleshing out the historical portrait of the African men, women, and children who were sold in Jamaica and were thus among the last of the enslaved to put their stamp on Jamaican society. There is no comparable study that takes such a comprehensive approach, looking at both the African and Jamaican sides of the trade system"--Provided by publisher

    Abstract: "Ideas of authenticity and respectability were central to the construction of black identities within black cultural and political resistance movements of the early twentieth century. Unfortunately both concepts have also been used to demonize black middle-class women whose endeavors towards racial uplift are too frequently dismissed as assimilationist and whose class status has apparently disqualified them from performing "authentic" blackness and exhibiting race pride." "Kate Dossett challenges these conceptualizations in a thorough examination of prominent black women leaders' political thought and cultural production in the years between the founding of the National Association of Colored Women in 1896 and the National Council of Negro Women in 1935. Through an analysis of black women's political activism, entrepreneurship, and literary endeavor, Dossett argues that black women made significant contributions toward the development of a black feminist tradition which enabled them to challenge the apparent dichotomy between black nationalism and integrationism."--BOOK JACKET.
