Description:

This course will examine the form and function of African American theater from the perspectives of its major presenters and participators. We will trace the development of African American theater from its African roots to minstrelsy, to the plays of integration and protest, to the more recent movements in ritual and revolutionary theater, and finally analyze today's Black theater activity; always in the context of what we will come to understand as the "Afro centric cultural imperative." 0.000 TO 4.000 Credit Hours 0.000 TO 4.000 Lecture hours Levels: Undergraduate Schedule Types: Lecture, Online Course Contemporary Arts College Contemporary Arts Department Course Attributes: MN-AFR AMR STD-Hum & Culture, MJ-AMER- African-Amer Studies, GE-INTERCULT NORTH AMERICA
