  • Explores how Mbembe’s work relates to contemporary global events and charts Mbembe’s intellectual development between Cameroon, France, and the USA;
  • Discusses core concepts from across Mbembe’s career, including the positioning of Africa within Western and Afrodiasporic thought, the colony, postcolony, necropolitics, decolonization, Afropolitanism, technology, and the environment;
  • Reveals Mbembe’s engagement with key global events, including the #RhodesMustFall and #BlackLivesMatter movements, and the call for the restitution of African objects in Western museums.
