The African World and North America: Sisyphean Struggles and Pyrrhic Pleasures.
Dr. Wendell Nii Laryea Adjetey will explore key events from the late-19th century to the late-20th century, scrutinizing the ebb and flow of integrated Black struggle in Canada, the United States, and the Caribbean. The lecture will challenge historiographical orthodoxy of Black progress, illustrating the ways that triumphalist interpretations of the past undermine Black liberation.
Wendell Nii Laryea Adjetey is an Associate Professor of post-Reconstruction U.S. and African Diaspora history and William Dawson Scholar at McGill University. He is the author of Cross-Border Cosmopolitans: The Making of a Pan-African North America.
