Publisher's blurb: "Black and White in Colour" considers how the African past has been represented in a wide range of historical films. Written by an eminent team of scholars, the volume provides extensive coverage of both place and time and deals with issues that have been prominent in the written history of Africa. Among the themes dealt with are the slave trade, imperialism and colonialism, racism and anti-colonial resistance. Many of the films will be familiar to readers: they include "Out of Africa", "Hotel Rwanda", "Lumumba", "Cry Freedom", "The Battle of Algiers", and "Ceddo".
