    African American Studies is a vital program of critical and intellectual inquiry. This course offers students the opportunity to examine from numerous disciplinary perspectives the experiences and contributions of people of African descent in the United States. This course, largely constructed around the voices of African Americans, surveys key concepts and defining movements in African America. We will explore the historical, cultural, economic, political, religious, literary, and social contributions and developments of African Americans. Students are encouraged to make connections between the texts and to think critically and creatively across disciplinary boundaries. Topics discussed will include identity, history, freedom, equality, slavery and abolition, arts and literature, feminism/womanism, Black aesthetics, self-determination, family, education, law, film, music, politics, and economics. The course provides a solid foundation from which students may pursue more advanced and more specialized studies of the African American experience. Two primary questions will guide our thinking throughout the semester: (1) how does the construction of African American identity create, reinforce, and/or destabilize the social constructions of race, gender, class, and sexuality in American culture and (2) what does it mean to be African American in the US?

    This course will examine African American literature and literary criticism from the mid-twentieth century until the present. To enhance our study of African American literary criticism, we will read novels, poems, plays, and short stories, analyzing the ways in which they influence and are influenced by the various modes of criticism that we are investigating. Additionally, we will read two types of literary criticism-texts that are about literature in general, and texts that are about the specific literary texts we are reading. Our goal is to consider and understand the key developments and conversations that have defined and transformed the field of African American literary and cultural studies. While we will move chronologically through these periods, we will not consider African American literary criticism or literature as developing linearly. Finally, we will pay close attention to the historical and cultural contexts and activist movements that frame our texts and that our texts frame. Although previous familiarity with African American literature is not a requirement for this course, regular attendance, active and engaged reading, and a firm commitment to succeed are! This course is reading intensive and will have quizzes regularly. Potential authors include: Baldwin, Petry, Hansberry, Gaines, Morrison, Walker, Naylor, Kenan, Jones, Wade, and Whitehead.
