GER 3661 - African Americans in Germany (3 Cr.) Race, Power, and Justice US, Historical Perspectives
Course description
How have African Americans understood their experiences with race outside of the United States? African Americans have been migrating and circulating the globe since the American Revolution, and it is only recently that scholars have considered the ways in which an abroad experience has been transformative for African Americans. In this seminar-style class, we will explore why and how African Americans have used their experiences in Germany to express a new understanding of their identity in the United States.
