HAFR 200 - Black Liberation Movements: A Comparative Approach

Credit Hours: 3

African Diasporic Identity & Social Justice Systems, this course is a historical examination of the dynamics of Black Liberation Movements across the globe. This involves examining African social contracts in various precolonial civilizations and then the histories of anti-colonial liberation movements in Africa, the Caribbean, and the Americas. Through an analysis of primary sources (ethical texts), the course examines how African historical experiences help us to understand the historically evolving social contracts of select nations: The African Union, the U.S., India, Israel, Egypt, Brazil, etc. Finally, the course examines how Black leaders have selected values from global ethical traditions leveraging them in struggles for social justice.

Prerequisites: Students must have a grade of C- or better in AFR 101 or another FYE course.
