Book Description

Moving the Centre: The Struggle for Cultural Freedoms” is a collection by Ngugi wa Thiong’o that addresses the imperative to shift the focus in two dimensions: between nations and within nations. Ngugi advocates for a repositioning of the global cultural center from its presumed Western location to a diverse array of spheres across all world cultures. Simultaneously, he underscores the need to move the center within nations away from minority class establishments to the true creative core found among working people, promoting conditions of racial, religious, and gender equality. The essays in this collection engage with the struggles for cultural freedoms on both a global and local scale.
