Die »schwarzen« deutschen Kolonialsoldaten sind seit der Niederlage im Ersten Weltkrieg als »treue Askari« bekannt. Sie waren in den deutschen Kolonialgebieten die Träger kolonialer Gewalt und damit die Basis deutsch-kolonialer Machtausübung. Ihre zentrale Funktion in der Repräsentation kolonialer Ordnung und deren ständige Bedrohung wird in diesem Buch an Text- und Bilddokumenten gezeigt. In globalgeschichtlicher Perspektive werden sowohl die kosmopolitischen Vorgeschichten der Kolonialsoldaten sowie Aneignungs- und Umdeutungsprozesse in Afrika bis ins 21. Jahrhundert verfolgt und so etablierte Wahrnehmungsregime dezentriert.

"Critique of Fantasy, Vol. 1: Between a Crypt and a Date Mark addresses both the style or genre of fantasy and the mental faculty, long the hot property of philosophical ethics. Freud passed it along in his 1907 essay on the poetics of daydreaming when he addressed omnipotent wish fantasy as the source and resource of the aspirations and resolutions of art, which, however, the artwork can never look back at or acknowledge. By grounding his genre in the one fantasy that is true, the Gospel, J.R.R. Tolkien obviated and made obvious the ethical mandate of fantasy’s restraining order. With George Lucas’s Star Wars we entered the borderlands of the fantasy and science fiction genres, a zone resulting from and staggering a contest, which Tolkien inaugurated in the 1930s. The history of this contested borderland marks changes that arose in expectation of what the new media held in store, changes realized (but outside the box of what had been projected) upon the arrival of the unanticipated digital relation, which at last seemed to award the fantasy genre the contest prize. Freud’s notion of the Zeitmarke (datemark), the indelible impress of the present moment that triggered the daydream that denies it, already introduced the import of fantasy's historicization. Science fiction won a second prize that keeps it in the running. No longer bound to projecting the future, the former calling which in light of digitization it flunked, science fiction becomes allegorical and reading in the ruins of its failed predictions illuminates all the date marks and crypts hiding out in the borderlands it traverses with fantasy. To motivate the import of an evolving science fiction genre, Critique of Fantasy makes Gotthard Günther's reflections in the 1950s on American science fiction – as heralding a new metaphysics and a new planetary going on interstellar civilization – a mainstay of its cultural anthropology with B-genres."
In the 1990s, Los Angeles was home to numerous radical social and environmental eruptions. In the face of several major earthquakes and floods, riots and economic insecurity, police brutality and mass incarceration, some young black Angelenos turned to holy hip hop—a movement merging Christianity and hip hop culture—to “save” themselves and the city. Converting street corners to open-air churches and gangsta rap beats into anthems of praise, holy hip hoppers used gospel rap to navigate complicated social and spiritual realities and to transform the Southland’s fractured terrains into musical Zions. Armed with beats, rhymes, and bibles, they journeyed through black Lutheran congregations, prison ministries, African churches, reggae dancehalls, hip hop clubs, Nation of Islam meetings, and Black Lives Matter marches. Zanfagna’s fascinating ethnography provides a contemporary and unique view of black LA, offering a much-needed perspective on how music and religion intertwine in people’s everyday experiences.“An extraordinary book: a treasure trove of information and a tour de force of original research about an intertextual nexus of music, religion, and social practice.” GEORGE LIPSITZ, author of How Racism Takes Place“Zanfagna’s intimate and nuanced work outlines what she calls ‘geographies of conversion.’ She reveals people moving toward ‘Zyon’, where they might encounter trouble, contradiction, and conflict, but also ecstasy, flight, and freedom. An often surprising, subtly transformative book.” JEFF CHANG, author of Can’t Stop Won’t Stop: A History of the Hip-Hop Generation“Zanfagna graces readers with a deeply engaged and intimately observed unveiling of a Jesus-worshipping West Coast hip hop scene. Through determined, industrious research and wise reflection she provides an exposed view of a pop-savvy form of missionary work that combines social justice motivations with a beat-driven imperative to ‘flipping the script(ures).’” GREGORY TATE, musician, and producer, and author of Midnight Lightning: Jimi Hendrix and the Black Experience
