A compelling examination of Sweden’s African and Black diaspora, this work addresses the contradiction between the country’s progressive reputation and its history of racism. Afro-Swedes have emerged as a vibrant demographic, shaped by generations of migration and cultural exchange. Through oral histories, archival research, ethnography, and textual analysis, the author explores the diverse history and culture of this growing Afro-European community. Employing the themes of “remembering” and “renaissance,” the text delves into Afro-Swedish social history and public culture. "Remembering" encourages a deep reflection on the community's past, while "Renaissance" highlights a flourishing Afro-Swedish cultural presence. Together, these concepts reveal important aspects of Afro-Swedish identity and contribution to global Black studies. As the first scholarly monograph in English focusing on the African and Black diaspora in Sweden, it emphasizes the voices and experiences of these communities. Its interdisciplinary approach is crucial for contemporary discussions about the status and identity of racialized populations in Europe and the global impact of movements like Black Lives Matter.
