pt. 1. Colonization/decolonization : philosophy and canon formation -- pt. 2. Racism, the academy, and the practice of philosophy -- pt. 3. Gender, ethnicity, and race -- pt. 4. Philosophy and the geopolitics of knowledge production -- pt. 5. Philosophy, language, and hegemony.
Reflections by leading Latin American and African American philosophers on their identity within the field of philosophy. This daring and bold book is the first to create a textual space where African American and Latin American philosophers voice the complex range of their philosophical and meta-philosophical concerns, approaches, and visions. The voices within this book protest and theorize from their own standpoints, delineating the specific existential, philosophical, and professional problems they face as minority philosophical voices.
