  • Pan African Agency and the Cultural Political Economy of the Black City: the Case of the African World Festival in Detroit
    PAN AFRICAN AGENCY AND THE CULTURAL POLITICAL ECONOMY OF THE BLACK CITY: THE CASE OF THE AFRICAN WORLD FESTIVAL IN DETROIT By El-Ra Adair Radney A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree African American and African Studies - Doctor of Philosophy 2019 ABSTRACT PAN AFRICAN AGENCY AND THE CULTURAL POLITICAL ECONOMY OF THE BLACK CITY: THE CASE OF THE AFRICAN WORLD FESTIVAL IN DETROIT By El-Ra Adair Radney Pan African Agency and the Cultural Political Economy of the Black City is a dissertation study of Detroit that characterizes the city as a ‘Pan African Metropolis’ within the combined histories of Black Metropolis theory and theories of Pan African cultural nationalism. The dissertation attempts to reconfigure Saint Clair Drake and Horace Cayton’s Jr’s theorization on the Black Metropolis to understand the intersectional dynamics of culture, politics, and economy as they exist in a Pan African value system for the contemporary Black city. Differently from the classic Black Metropolis study, the current study incorporates African heritage celebration as a major Black life axes in the maintenance of the Black city’s identity. Using Detroit as a case study, the study contends that through their sustained allegiance to African/Afrocentric identity, Black Americans have enhanced the Black city through their creation of a distinctive cultural political economy, which manifests in what I refer to throughout the study as a Pan African Metropolis. I argue that the Pan African Metropolis emerged more visibly and solidified itself during Detroit’s Black Arts Movement in the 1970s of my youth (Thompson, 1999).

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA RIVERSIDE Take a Wine and Roll “IT”!: Breaking Through the Circumscriptive Politics of the Trini/Caribbean Dancing Body A Dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Critical Dance Studies by Adanna Kai Jones March 2016 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Anthea Kraut, Chairperson Dr. Marta E. Savigliano Dr. Amalia Cabezas Copyright by Adanna Kai Jones 2016 The Dissertation of Adanna Kai Jones is approved: Committee Chairperson University of California, Riverside ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS You know how at fundraisers they say, “Every penny counts,” well the same applies to the process of dissertating. Every hug, every smile, every cheer, every piece of advice, every rough draft read, every second of listening, every book borrowed, every meal offered, every dollar granted, and every prayer sent on my behalf, all of these moments pushed me closer to the very real moment of completion. According to the south African philosophy of ubuntu, meaning “I am because we are,” I could only have made it here because of each and every one of you who hugged, smiled, cheered, mentored, read, listened, shared, cooked, and prayed for me. We all participated in a journey that has not only changed how I approach learning and teaching, but it has also changed how I view myself, as well as my purpose in this world. For each and every one of these necessary moments, I am eternally grateful. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart, mind, and soul. And now it is time for the “shout-outs!” With regards to funding for my research in both Trinidad and Barbados, I am grateful for the support of the Dissertation Research Grant and the Dissertation Year Program Fellowship, both of which were received through the University of California, Riverside.
