HIST 2724 - RETHINKING THE 20TH CENTURY BLACK ATLANTIC: CIRCUITS, SPHERES, SOCIAL MOVEMENTS

Minimum Credits: 3
Maximum Credits: 3
How has the African diaspora shaped the modern world? What role did afro-diasporic intellectuals and social movements play in the post-emancipation Atlantic world? Recent scholarship in multiple disciplines has traced how men and women from the Caribbean, North America, Brazil, West Africa, and beyond remade 20th C. politics and culture on an international as well as national level. Exploring performance, ritual, literature, social movements, and everyday life, we trace evolving ideas of race and nation, ancestry and authenticity, belonging and rights.
