What is African American History?

"Pero Gaglo Dagbovie is the preeminent scholar of the history of the Black History Movement. His original and provocative perspectives on African American History and pioneering studies of the role of Black Women in the evolution of the field encouraged us all to interrogate and contemplate the meanings of African American History. His work has significance not only to Black Americans but to all people who have wrestled with exclusion from standard narratives of their societies. What is African American History? is another much anticipated contribution to our ongoing investigations and analyses of the meaning, significance, and consequence of African American History."
