AFRST-306 Seminar: Blackness Matters In Europe

This course reconsiders the meaning of Europe through critical examination of past & present representations, policies, and the continual renegotiation of belonging. Europe is a contested site of identity, place, and belonging where post-colonial African and other populations are increasingly visible. Focusing on the African Diaspora in Europe, the course examines such issues as colonization and its legacies, Blackness and Anti-Blackness, political subjectivity, multiculturalism, citizenship and belonging, gender, the border, the refugee crisis, and the making of racial and class hierarchies.
