AAS 265: Mandela's South Africa
4.00 Credits
University of Rochester
Rarely have the dreams of a nation been so bound to an individual as with Nelson Mandela and South Africa. Using Mandela’s ninety-two year life-span as a framework, this course will follow the political, social, and cultural changes that have swept South Africa in a single lifetime. From the consolidation of a white supremacist government, through the nightmare of Apartheid, and into the hope of a New South Africa, this class will explore the major themes of African nationalism, post-colonialism, Marxist revolution, civil disobedience, third-world development, and international human rights.

AAS 356: The Black Family in Slavery and Freedom
4.00 Credits
University of Rochester
After a discussion of the Moynihan Report controversy and an assessment of the literature on the black family, the readings will investigate why and how stable black families were encouraged, and how they developed under slavery. The impact of factors such as economics, politics, religion, gender, medicine, and the proximity of free families, on the structure of the black family will be given special attention. In this way, the structure of the slave family on the eve of Emancipation, and its preparedness for freedom, will be tested and assessed. Students will be encouraged to identify persistent links between the "history" of slavery and the black family, and the development of social policy.
