James E. Genova studies African history and culture, with particular attention to colonial and postcolonial French-speaking (Francophone) Africa. His work often examines film, media, and representation—how Africans and African societies have been portrayed and have portrayed themselves through cinema, radio, and literature during and after colonial rule.
Publication output has been modest and irregular over the last decade, with occasional years of no output interspersed with one or two publications per year, averaging less than one per year over the last five years.
