tailieunhanh - The Meaning of Mandela

This lively, engaging and witty collection of lectures brings together the renowned African and African-American scholars - Cornel West, Henry Louis Gates Jr and Wole Soyinka - to reflect on the public meaning of the iconic Nelson Mandela. Any one of these authors would have been a pleasure to read in his own right, but to have all three of them enjoined in this common intellectual effort is an enlightening experience. | Free download from The Meaning of Mandela A Literary and Intellectual Celebration Edited by Xolela Mangcu Foreword by Archbishop Desmond Tutu Free download from Compiled by the Society Culture and Identity Research Programme of the Human Sciences Research Council.
