520    "Eschewing the often romanticized Underground Railroad 
       narrative that portrays southern Ontario as the welcoming 
       destination of Blacks fleeing from slavery, The Promised 
       Land reveals the Chatham-Kent area as a crucial settlement
       site for an early Black presence in Canada. The 
       contributors present the everyday lives and professional 
       activities of individuals and families in these 
       communities and highlight early cross-border activism to 
       end slavery in the United States and to promote civil 
       rights in the United States and Canada. Essays also 
       reflect on the frequent intermingling of local Black, 
       White, and First Nations people. Using a cultural studies 
       framework for their collective investigations, the authors
       trace physical and intellectual trajectories of Blackness 
       that have radiated from southern Ontario to other parts of
       Canada, the United States, the Caribbean, and Africa. The 
       result is a collection that represents the presence and 
       diffusion of Blackness and inventively challenges the 
       grand narrative of history."--Publisher's website.
