HIST 482 Women in the African Diaspora
Women of the African Diaspora experienced unique circumstances in their daily lives as daughters, mothers, wives, sisters, politicians, activists, workers, etc. For women of African descent, diasporic identity was often an issue with which they struggle, manipulate, and, at times, conquer. Analytical frameworks of social constructs of gender, race and class differ globally, and for these women, constructing ideological bridges is challenging. Primary sources, monographs, works of fact and fiction, and site visits will constitute the context of this course.
