What do we mean when we claim affinity with an object or picture, or say affinities exist between such things? Affinities is a critical and personal study of a sensation that is not exactly taste, desire, or allyship, but has aspects of all. Approaching this subject via discrete examples, this book is first of all about images that have stayed with the author over many years, or grown in significance during months of pandemic isolation, when the visual field had shrunk. Some are historical works by artists such as Julia Margaret Cameron, Dora Maar, Claude Cahun, Samuel Beckett and Andy Warhol. Others are scientific or vernacular images: sea creatures, migraine auras, astronomical illustrations derived from dreams. Also family photographs, film stills, records of atomic ruin. And contemporary art by Rinko Kawauchi, Susan Hiller and John Stezaker. Written as a series of linked essays, interwoven with a reflection on affinity itself, Affinities is an extraordinary book about the intimate and abstract pleasures of reading and looking.

As African and Caribbean nations gained independence from Britain in the 1950s and 1960s, many young musicians, students, and professionals crossed the Atlantic in search of new opportunities and built vibrant communities. Pan-African Resonance: Music, Migration, and Everyday Practice in London and Accra traces these journeys from Ghana, Trinidad and Tobago, Jamaica, Saint Lucia, Barbados, and Guyana, exploring how migrants practiced pan-Africanism through music across continents and generations. Drawing on musical recordings, newspapers, oral histories, and government documents from six countries, Alison Okuda demonstrates that pan-African solidarity thrived through the everyday creation and enjoyment of popular music. The book unfolds in two parts. Starting in the 1950s, it examines how Ghanaian highlife and Trinidadian calypso brought together musicians and young members of the independence generation, first in London and later in Accra. Even amid cultural tensions, Ghanaian and Caribbean communities expressed aspirations for freedom and unity in nightclubs, recording studios, private homes, and public streets. Before Ghanas 1966 coup détat, Ghanaians and diasporic Africans collaborated to shape an independent African-Atlantic world. Although the coup disrupted formal Pan-Africanist organizing, in the second part of the book Okuda shows that in the 1970s a new generation sustained dynamic networks of solidarity through highlife, reggae, and other popular styles-heard in recordings, radio broadcasts, live performances, and community events. Influenced by generational change and musical fluidity, African-diasporic unity has remained central to popular music, migration, and politics in Ghana and the wider African-Atlantic world into the twenty-first century. Offering a rich interdisciplinary approach, Pan-African Resonance will appeal to readers interested in popular culture, transnational history, diaspora studies, and modern African history.
