HIS 111 - Introduction to African American History

Credits: 3

This course focuses on the diverse experiences of African Americans beginning in West Africa during the 1400s and ending with contemporary events and ideological developments. Throughout this course, the role of African American leaders, the struggle against oppression, and the evolution of race relations receive considerable attention. Although covering an extensive period of time, central themes will help connect the parts to the whole, revealing an overall picture of African American culture and its importance to American social and political development.
