| AAMS 551 - African American Political Thought (3). |

In reflecting on the work of Audre Lourde, W.E.B. Dubois, Frederick Douglass, Sojourner Truth, Toni Morrison, Martin Luther King, Malcolm X, Cornell West, Mark Twain and others, we will angle in on the question of black identity from a variety of perspectives. Particular attention will be paid to the relationship between these articulations of "blackness" and the historical and political settings in which they arise. Informed class discussion will be emphasized. Students are expected to write a term paper and to present it to the class.
