Comparative Politics 351: African-American Political and Social Thought
4.00 Credits
St Lawrence University
A broad-based survey of African-American social and political thought. The focus is on the theme of duality: what it means for a culture and a people to be both integral to and excluded from the larger society of which they are a part. We will examine the variety of ways African-American thinkers have confronted this duality and how they have asserted the dignity and autonomy of their people in the context of a social order historically structured to deny them their full humanity. The course will include such African-American thinkers and writers as David Walker, Frederick Douglass, Ida B. Wells, Booker T. Washington, W.E.B. DuBois, Richard Wright, James Baldwin, Audre Lorde and Toni Morrison. Also offered through U.S. Cultural and Ethnic Studies.
