AFRS BC3110 THE AFRICANA COLLOQUIUM. 4.00 points.

Prerequisites: Students must attend first day of class and admission will be decided then. Enrollment limited to 18 students. Priority will be given to Africana majors and CCIS students (Africana Studies, American Studies and Women's Studies majors; minors in Race and Ethnic Studies).
In this colloquium we will examine the complexities of race, gender, ethnicity, class, sexuality, and nationality within Caribbean contexts. Some of the themes we will analyze include conceptions of home and nation; the use, creation, and politics of language; intergenerational relationships between women; the rites and rights of girlhood and womanhood; and intersecting identities. We will specifically address how Caribbean women scholars/activists/artists critique racism, sexism, classism, heterosexism, colonialism, neocolonialism, and tourism within Caribbean sociocultural landscapes. In addition, we will analyze how Caribbean women/womyn frame and interrogate the politics of slavery, emancipation, freedom, resistance, rebellion, and independence during different historical eras. The required readings for this course reflect a variety of disciplinary and interdisciplinary methodologies, as well as a range of genres
