Black Sporting Resistance
Diaspora, Transnationalism, and Internationalism"Cooper's book serves as a testament to the power of Black resistance and activism in and through sport and its capacity to transcend national borders and cultural divides in the fight for justice." (UMass Boston News) “A strong contribution to sports, politics, and the sociology of race, Black Sporting Resistance indisputably argues that Black athletes and sport organizers have historically been at the forefront of anti-racist political activism. There really is no comparable text to this one.” - Janelle Joseph (author of Sport and the Black Atlantic: Cricket, Canada, and the Caribbean Diaspora) "Black Sporting Resistance is impressive in scope, breadth, and its mastery of different literatures. It's a tremendously important synthesis of scholarship. Drawing on the tradition of Black internationalism, Cooper theorizes race and resistance to Euro-American imperialism through sport as a global process and dialogue that stretches across both time and space. We can see how Black athletes in different times and places react to organize in opposition to global white supremacy." - Jeffrey Montez de Oca (author of Discipline and Indulgence: College Football, Media, and the American Way of Life during th)

Facing the Rising Sun
African Americans, Japan, and the Rise of Afro-Asian Solidarity"An absorbing study of Afro-Asian solidarity. Horne's prodigious archival research is ingeniously framed by questions that challenge some of the assumptions made about African American civil rights struggles in the twentieth century ... Scholars should seriously consider the views of pro-Tokyo black nationalists and their contributions to the dismantling of Jim Crow laws." - Modernism/modernity "Horne's masterful historiography makes Facing the Rising Sun an important text for black internationalism, Afro-Asian studies, and other related fields." - The Journal of African American History "In his ever-expanding corpus, Gerald Horne continues to hone in on the question of contingency -- that is, why the seemingly intractable problem of racism in the United States would give way at a particular moment in history. In Facing the Rising Sun, Horne focuses on Black Nationalists who took a pro-Tokyo position during the Pacific War, a period in which Japan's revolt against the West rattled white supremacy. They forged solidarity with Japan, America's enemy, and amid the crisis over race and the very messiness of politics, the world around them changed even as they paid a high price. This work reminds us that in the cause of Black liberation, then and now, the analysis of the confluence of world and domestic affairs matters in the struggle against racism and empire." - Yuichiro Onishi, author of,Transpacific Antiracism: Afro-Asian Solidarity in 20th-Century Black America, Japan, and Okinawa "Through uncovering a rich, dynamic history of pro-Japanese views among U.S. Black nationalists during the Depression and World War II, Gerald Horne has produced a brilliant book that provides a powerful model for writing about transnational African American history, global white supremacy, and Afro-Asian solidarities." - Erik S. McDuffie ,author of Sojourning for Freedom "Alongside Race War!: White Supremacy and the Japanese Attack on the British Empire and other works, this monograph adds to Dr. Horne's prolific oeuvre concerning the multifaceted international context of movements of opposition and solidarity against Euro-American Empire. Horne again showcases the expansive and imaginative -- as well as at times contradictory and problematic -- transnational activities, ideology, and agency of U.S. Black political struggle. This work is another reminder of why he continues to be a leading historian and intellectual on global affairs, and moreover a model of radical intellectualism and activism for generations of today and tomorrow." - Robeson Taj Frazier,author of The East Is Black: Cold War China in the Black Radical Imaginationier "The book offers a wealth of detail on some of the overlooked actors in this drama. Their dialogues presaged the intoxicating rise and tragic fall of postwar Afro-Asian movements, whose collective-cooperative aspirations sketched a beautiful vision of solidarity." - Diplomatic History
