Horizon, Sea, Sound: Caribbean and African Women’s Cultural Critiques of Nation

Horizon, Sea, Sound: Caribbean and African Women’s Cultural Critiques of Nation

In Horizon, Sea, Sound: Caribbean and African Women’s Cultural Critiques of Nation, Andrea Davis imagines new reciprocal relationships beyond the competitive forms of belonging suggested by the nation-state. The book employs the tropes of horizon, sea, and sound as a critique of nation-state discourses and formations, including multicultural citizenship, racial capitalism, settler colonialism, and the hierarchical nuclear family.
