Urging us to hear the resonance of Afro-Diasporic polyrhythms across multiple tempos of resistance, accommodation, creolization, and transculturation, Njoroge M. Njoroge puts music right in the center of critical historical analysis. Entangling key lineages of theory from Marxism to phenomenology, his way of listening provides a sustained argument for an audible politics of blackness.--Steven Feld, Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Anthropology and Music at University of New Mexico
