About The Event
About the book:
Published in 1994, Let the Circle Be Unbroken examines the African conception of the relationship between spirit and matter. Marimba Ani explains that, for African people, spirit and matter have a symbiotic relationship which must be acknowledged in our political action and organizing as African people.
Dr. Marimba Ani is an anthropologist and African studies scholar who’s best known for her book Yurugu: An African-Centered Critique of European Cultural Thought and Behavior. She received her Bachelor’s degree at the University of Chicago and her Master’s and Ph.D. in anthropology at the Graduate Faculty of the New School University. Ani served as an SNCC (Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee) field secretary during Freedom Summer in 1964. And she also taught as a professor of African Studies in the Department of Black and Puerto Rican Studies at Hunter College in New York City.
