<<Ah, you put me to shame.  My expertise is actually in African American,
Afro-Caribbean and Afro-British writing, and while I've read most of the
folks you named (not Gyekye or Wiredu) I have nothing special to add.  On
the other hand, I am writing a book on Du Bois' later work and the origin
of "third worldist" marxisms -- as I work on it it becomes more and more
about World Systems Theory and especially Wallerstein.>>

How about C.L.R. James? And Claudia Jones?
