Expanded Course Description
| This course introduces students to the theoretical models used in the interdisciplinary study of African-America. Using a thematic approach, students will learn to critically engage the development of and dynamics between race, racism and blackness in the United States. This course, then, highlights the symbiotic relationship between structural domination and cultural resistance. The Introduction to African-American Studies pays special attention to the intersections of race, class, gender and sexuality. Topics include slavery and the slave trade, colonialism and imperialism, racial segregation and disfranchisement, migration and urbanization, popular cultural representations, black nationalism and internationalism, civil rights and black power, and black cultural productions. |
