Course Title

Africana Studies

Description

The Global Perspectives course will explore the dynamics of racial, ethnic, and economic relations of power in domestic, international, and transnational settings. The course will examine scholarship produced by and about Black people, Third World citizens, and other social and political actors whose experiences and thinking have shaped contemporary ideas about race, power, and international political economies. The course will explore how both self-identified people of color and people who do not consider themselves as such write about and understand race, gender, justice, human rights, tolerance, agency, imperialism, and other relevant topics. Though many experiences will be considered, this course is specifically designed to foreground experiences beyond the borders of the United States.
