AAAS 88.02 Women and Gender in the African Diaspora
This course focuses on the lived experiences of—and structural limitations placed upon—women of African descent from the era of the trans-Atlantic slave trade through the early twentieth century. We will examine a number of critical themes, including power, labor, geography and migration, racism, sexuality, spirituality, and a host of other dynamics impacting women. Importantly, however, we will also focus on the many ways in which these women "talked back" to the larger world.
