Imperceptibly as he imbibes his 
Vintage wine in esconsced repose

Im taking this opportunity to ask you to celebrate with me another publication by the only non-identical twin brother I possess on the planet.


This eegun senu jeje professor has been peer mentor for legions of stellar professors and upcoming academics including yours truly for decades.  Im hoping the roads will be closed on the approach to his domicile come April when he holds court.


Of course, he is an undoubted a prominent member incarnate of Akara Oogun's original  Valiant 7.


But for the fact that Im found wanting in the musical skills of  Chief Commander Obey i would have sung:



O dile Adebayo mi  o ojogbon rolola


Oko Folasade mi o Ibadan sa nile


O dile Adebayo mi o ojogbon rolola


Baba ni le baba loko baba ni  Ifewara ile

Book Announcement



The long and arduous struggle for human and civil rights is a defining theme in the historical experiences of African people and their descendants in the Diaspora. Challenges to fundamental human and civil rights continue to manifest in multiple dimensions, and are still critical issues in the political, economic, and social realities of black people. Featuring thirteen original chapters contributed by scholars from both sides of the Atlantic, this book interrogates the complex dynamics of human dignity and rights within the global African context from a multidisciplinary perspective. By providing an integrated discourse on fundamental issues of human and civil rights such as state repression in the modern African state, women's rights, minority rights, the right to education, and racial disparities and injustice in Black America, the book offers academics and the general reader a valuable resource to understand the historical and contemporary processes shaping human rights and freedom in the African world.


The book advances an important argument: that oppressive ideologies and practices which disproportionately victimize black people in Africa and in various diasporic locations have compelled the victims to develop a rich conceptual repertoire on rights as well as a robust vocabulary and a set of ameliorative methodologies for demanding and defending their human and civil rights. The most indelible contribution of this volume is that it insightfully and coherently weaves the struggles and sociopolitical experiences of African peoples in multiple spatial and temporal settings into current debates on human and civil rights. In this regard, the editors and authors clear a space for the universal idioms of rights to productively engage with the experience of and struggle for these rights in historically marginalized communities.

---Moses E. Ochonu, Professor of African History, Vanderbilt University
