This innovative anthology focuses on the enslavement, middle passage,                  American experience, and return to Africa of a single cultural group, the Yoruba.                  Moving beyond descriptions of generic African experiences, this anthology will allow                  students to trace the experiences of one cultural group throughout the cycle of the                  slave experience in the Americas. The 19 essays, employing a variety of disciplinary                  perspectives, provide a detailed study of how the Yoruba were integrated into the                  Atlantic world through the slave trade and slavery, the transformations of Yoruba                  identities and culture, and the strategies for resistance employed by the Yoruba in                  the New World.The contributors are Augustine H.
