BA Black Studies

The program draws on diverse disciplinary perspectives and pedagogical methods, allowing students to link coursework across the curriculum. It is committed to producing and advancing knowledge about black people in Africa and the communities of African descent in the Americas, the Caribbean, and Europe. The program allows students to explore diverse theoretical and methodological perspectives to deepen their understanding of local, national, transnational, diasporic, and global processes. Of necessity, the debates that ensue will engage the voices and lived experiences of Black people past and present.
