New Course! BLKST 191 The Black Male Experience in the United States has been added with Professor Saltsman, TTh 9:30-10:45.
Description: An interdisciplinary study focusing on the black male experience in the United States from the first black inhabitants of the continental United States (early 1600s) to the present. Using art, history, psychology, and political science, students investigate the forces that have shaped black male identity, the activities of resistance and liberation, and the sources of oppression both within and outside the black community. Students critically examine the themes of masculinity, the male body, sexuality, and relationships with female members of the black community.
