Black Liberation Philology: Shaykh Musa Kamara and the Fate of the Humanities
Professor Wendell Marsh’s work is concerned with the entanglement of Islam, Blackness, and modernity in the wake of the Atlantic slave trade and European colonization of Africa. He uses the work of a colonial era Muslim intellectual, Shaykh Musa Kamara, to engage questions of historicity and humanity, the religious and the political, as well as theory and method.
