摘要

在 "全球 20 世纪 60 年代 "的鼎盛时期,数以百计的非裔美国人移居非洲,以寻求逃避种族主义和参与反殖民主义政治的机会。玛雅-安杰洛是这场运动中最杰出的人物之一。在她的第一本书出版前九年,安杰洛生活在埃及,当时被称为阿拉伯联合共和国,她在那里的国家媒体机构担任作家、编辑和广播员。在加纳,她继续从事新闻和政治写作,将美国的民权斗争与更广泛的反对种族主义和帝国主义运动结合起来。这篇文章利用安杰洛个人档案中以前未曾研究过的文件及其政治写作的现存记录,揭示了非裔美国人活动家在全球反殖民网络中的作用,以及激进记者在非殖民化世界中所面临的挑战。

The caged bird sings of freedom: Maya Angelou’s anti-colonial journalism in the United Arab Republic and Ghana, 1961–1965
At the height of the ‘global 1960s’, hundreds of African Americans moved to Africa in search of a refuge from racism and the opportunity to participate in anti-colonial politics. One of the most prominent figures in this movement was Maya Angelou. Nine years before the publication of her first book, Angelou lived in Egypt, then known as the United Arab Republic, where she worked as a writer, editor, and broadcaster at state-directed media institutions. She continued this work in Ghana, where her journalism and political writing situated the civil rights struggle in the United States within wider campaigns against racism and imperialism. Using previously unexamined documents from Angelou’s personal archive and surviving records of her political writing, this article sheds light on the role of African American activists in global anti-colonial networks and the challenges faced by radical journalists across the decolonizing world.

期刊介绍: Journal of Global History addresses the main problems of global change over time, together with the diverse histories of globalization. It also examines counter-currents to globalization, including those that have structured other spatial units. The journal seeks to transcend the dichotomy between "the West and the rest", straddle traditional regional boundaries, relate material to cultural and political history, and overcome thematic fragmentation in historiography. The journal also acts as a forum for interdisciplinary conversations across a wide variety of social and natural sciences. Published for London School of Economics and Political Science
