"In this bold and provocative new book, Damani J. Partridge examines the possibilities
and limits for a universalized Black politics. German youth of Turkish, Arab, and
African descent use claims of Blackness to hold states and other institutions accountable
for racism today. Partridge tracks how these young people take on the expressions
of Black Power, acting out the scene from the 1968 Olympics, proclaiming "I am Malcolm
X," expressing mutual struggle with Muhammad Ali and Spike Lee, and standing with
raised and clenched fists next to Angela Davis. Partridge also documents public school
teachers, federal program leaders, and politicians demanding that young immigrants
account for the global persistence of anti-Semitism as part of the German state's
commitment to antigenocidal education. He uses these stories to interrogate the relationships
among European Enlightenment, Holocaust memory, and Black futures, showing how noncitizens
work to reshape their everyday lives. In doing so, he demonstrates how Blackness is
a concept that energizes, inspires, and makes possible participation beyond national
belonging for immigrants, refugees, Black people, and other People of Color"
