HIS 329 - Blk Resistance in Jim Crow Era(4 credits)
African Americans challenged white supremacy long before the emergence of the modern movement for civil rights. This course studies the politics of black resistance during the era of legal segregation-from Plessy vs. Ferguson (1896) to Brown vs. Board of Education (1954). Topics will include anti-lynching, the impact of rural to urban and southern to northern migration, unionization, Garveyism, communism, the roots of black power, and the ways that African Americans confronted the rise of a racist commercial culture. This course may fulfill a General Education Requirement.
