Learning Goals
While this course explores historical, political and economic contexts that have shaped Black American culture, it also emphasizes how Black culture is revealed in various cultural forms. Indeed, the many and varied layers of cultural experiences, rich in texture and depth will provide the special vantage point for studying the cultural consciousness of Black Americans. Throughout the course special attention will be given to the previously "invisible" experiences of Black American women, and those many working class Black Americans whose social presence and cultural expressions are an integral part of Black culture. Hence, students in this course will be challenged to think about what race, gender, class and sexuality have to do with Black people’s culture in the United States.
