Subject:

Description:

09W: 12 This course explores and analyzes the highly diverse religious expressions and postures among persons of African descent in the United States. While the direction of the course is largely chronological, it is not intended as a comprehensive survey of black religion in the United States. This course will, however, situate black religious practice and thought in the larger terrain of American religious history and explore several themes that will help us grapple with how black people have shaped their religious culture and thought since slavery. Open to all classes. Dist: TMV; WCult: W. Hardy. For courses at the Intermediate level in Black Religion, see course numbered 61.
