HIS 318 - Black America and Africa

[3 credit(s)]
Course explores the ways that African Americans have imagined home by considering the relationship that peoples of African descent in the United States have held with Africa, and how that relationship has figured historically in the making of an African American identity. We will investigate the transformation of African identities in the new world, the formation and transformation of racial nationalism and its relationship to the continent, as well as the connection between the US based freedom movement and African struggles for independence. Throughout the course we will define and redefine what is and has been meant by terms such as the African Diaspora, Cultural Nationalism, black trans-nationalism and Pan-Africanism.
