Africana Studies 369 - Black Radicalism

The struggles and ideas of transatlantic black radicals have changed the ways we think and study--through the formation of Africana/African-American/Black-Studies--and the ways in which we express thoughts and ideas--through culture and politics. In this seminar, we will study the interdisciplinary history of black radicalism in the 20th century--in the United States, the Caribbean, and Africa. This interdisciplinary history is animated by a central debate over the role of black internationalism, if any, in domestic black radical thought and action, in the United States, the Caribbean, and Africa.
