AAAS 88.23 The Black Atlantic: Africans and African Descendents in the Colonial Era

This course examines the history of the Black diaspora in the Atlantic World during the early modern/colonial era (c. 1400s-1700s). It will follow a flexible chronological pathway and a thematic methodology to analyze the Atlantic slave trade, in addition to how people of African descent navigated racial ideologies, colonial violence, and imperial expansion. Students will develop a notion of the Black Atlantic that includes Africa, Europe, the Caribbean, North America, and South America.
