Originally published in 1994, Homelands, Harlem & Hollywood examines the anti-colonialist struggle against apartheid, and the ways in which American and South African culture have been fascinated with and influenced by one another. Rob Nixon’s wide-ranging analysis looks at Hollywood representations of the struggle for liberation, the impact of the Harlem Renaissance on the Sophiatown writers, the banning and censorship of television under apartheid, Mandela and messianic politics, the sports and cultural boycotts, ethnic nationalism, and the culture of violence. Nixon concludes with an investigation of how the collapse of communism and anti-communism and the rise of ethnic cleansing in Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union had powerful implications for the shape of post-apartheid South Africa.

This book explores what happened to the South African homelands after the fall of apartheid. It argues that the homelands continue to persist as unresolved matter and that it is in relation to them that the crucial battle for true liberation at apartheid's end is fought. This account is central for understanding post-apartheid South Africa and postcolonial Africa in general.

Discusses the possible future of the "homelands" or "bantustans".
