AAST 333 Studies in Black Feminism (3)

A variable topic course that explores the tradition, central tenets, and key debates of Black Feminism from the nineteenth century to the contemporary moment. The course examines the basic principles and practices of black feminism and students will conduct interpretative analysis of the work and thought that leading black women writers produce in academic and public contexts. Such a study takes an interdisciplinary approach to the subject, critically reading, discussing, and responding in written analysis to a series of print, visual, and other texts. Readings will vary from year to year and may include a range of global and black transnational perspectives.
