Notes:
This book breaks new theoretical and methodological ground in the study of the African diaspora in the Atlantic world. Leading scholars of archaeology, linguistics, and socio-cultural anthropology draw upon extensive field experiences and archival investigations of black communities in North America, the Caribbean, South America, and Africa to challenge received paradigms in Afro-American anthropology; Yelvington, K.A.

Notes:
The author explores the history of Afro-Latino history, culture, and politics in the Americas, locating its origins in the invasion of the Iberian peninsula by African Muslims in the 8th century and noting how later Christian Portuguese and Spanish states used proximity to West Africa to develop trade which expanded the slave trade and plantation economies to Europe and throughout the Americas.
