Description

This course examines the lives, struggles and accomplishments of African Diasporic women along the axes of gender, race, class, sexuality, and nation. Critical to understanding Africana women's lived experiences is an appreciation of for the ways that these women integrate political action and consciousness into their daily, familial and communal lives utilizing ethnographic and (auto)biographic readings to allow women of the African Diaspora to speak for and about themselves. This course examines the multiple ways African Diasporic women shape histories in the Americas and Africa, connecting the politics of Africana Feminisms and Black/Women's Liberation.
