African Perspectives Publishing
African Perspectives Publishing is a premier black-owned publishing and distribution company based in Johannesburg, South Africa.
Embodying a legacy of resilience, innovation, and cultural stewardship, the company has been instrumental in shaping the discourse surrounding Pan-Africanism, Revolutionary Theory, and Identity for nearly two decades with its diverse offering of published works.
African Perspectives Publishing is propelled by its vision of amplifying diverse narratives from across and beyond the continent to be a pioneering force in literature.
Our commitment to expanding voices that challenge and inspire is demonstrated by our acquisition of publishing rights to works by Ernesto ‘Che’ Guevara, the biography of the legendary Afro-beat originator Fela Anikulapo Kuti, and the memoir narrating the extraordinary circumstances under which a young military officer, Flight Lieutenant John Jerry Rawlings became the longest serving head of state of Ghana, and changed the course of his country’s history and political development.
The curated collection of tributes to Dr Ali Mazrui solidifies our dedication to preserving and promoting African intellectual heritage.
By enriching minds and fostering dialogue in pursuit of a more inclusive and enlightened society, the company continues to be a beacon of literary excellence.
