The contributors to this collection explore three main axes.The first addresses circulations—the ways Black populations have moved through the spaces of metropolitan France and the empire—and focuses on the actors themselves and the margins of maneuver available to them, particularly as soldiers, sailors, immigrants, or political militants. The second considers legacies and the ways the past has informed the present, addressing themes such as the memory of slavery, the histories of Black women and gender, and the historical influence of African Americans on Blacks in France. The final axis considers racial policy and the ways the state has shaped racial discourses through the interactions between state policies and ideas of race developed by individuals, organizations, and communities.\u003ci\u003eThe B\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“A needed expansion and corrective to the history of France, whose long-standing and diverse Black populations remain insufficiently explored. The originality of this book also resides in its geographical reach, as it extends beyond the metropole to a vast overseas territorial divide. . . . At the same time [it elucidates] the temporal fluidity of race and Blackness in these geographies, which contradict and complicate France’s cherished ideals of universalism and citizenship.”—Trica Keaton, coeditor of \u003ci\u003eBlack France \/ France Noire: The History and Politics of Blackness\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction: The Black Populations of France: An Historical Mosaic\u003cbr\u003e             Sylvain Pattieu, Emmanuelle Sibeud, Tyler Stovall\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003eColonial France in Africa\u003cbr\u003e 1.
