Description

This article offers a rare analysis of the literary and journalistic work of David Graham Du Bois. It illuminates a practice of Afro-Arab diasporic culture that narrates linkages between Oakland, Cairo, and Palestine through practices of linguistic and generic translation. In situating the production of David Du Bois's autobiographical novel ... And Bid Him Sing (1975) in its own dense historical weave, a close reading highlights the textual strategies constitutive of translating an esthetics, politics, and language of African American radicalism into other contexts. **********
