My second attempt that never made it to the #bookcover picture for - “Decolonisation in Uganda: Knowledge, Institutions, Publics.” Authored by; Katherine Bruce-Lockhart, @jon_earle_ogugu , Nakanyike B. Musisi & Edgar Curtis Taylor. “The decolonization of knowledge has become a major issue in African Studies in recent years, brought to the fore by social movements from #RhodesMustFall to #BlackLivesMatter. This timely book explores the politics and disputed character of knowledge production in colonial and postcolonial Uganda, where efforts to generate forms of knowledge and solidarity that transcend colonial epistemologies draw on long histories of resistance and refusal. Bringing together scholars from Africa, Europe and America, the contributors in this volume analyse how knowledge has been created, mobilized, and contested across a wide range of Ugandan contexts. In so doing, they reveal how Ugandans have built, disputed, and reimagined institutions of authority and knowledge production in ways that disrupt the colonial frames that continue to shape scholarly analyses and state structures. From the politics of language and gender in Bakiga naming practices to ways of knowing among the Acholi, the hampering of critical scholarship by militarism and authoritarianism, and debates over the names of streets, lakes, mountains, and other public spaces, this book shows how scholars and a wide range of Ugandan publics are reimagining the politics of knowledge in Ugandan public life.” This leaves this picture another @crumanzi work of #DigitalCollage art. The image which finally made it, you get to see it when these folks have published the book. Mazel Tov. 📖🕸💚 (at Kampala, Uganda) https://www.instagram.com/p/CZ9XRLPrKsr/?utm_medium=tumblr
