HIST 23100 - The Making of Africa Course Credit: 1
(AFST, EDUC)
THE MAKING OF AFRICA From early antiquity to the late 16th century, Africa and Africans have been key players in world affairs. Ancient Egypt, Kush, Aksum, Ancient Zimbabwe, the west African empires of Ghana, Mali, Songhai, and Asante, as well as the state of Kongo in central Africa, the various Muslim dynasties in North Africa, and the Swahili city-states on the Indian Ocean coast, to name but a few examples, were the centers of this fascinating historical development. From the 16th century, the Atlantic slave trade, which lasted for at least three hundred years, destroyed African political, social, and economic institutions that sustained the continent on the world scene up to that time. As a consequence of that, this trade paved the way to the colonization of almost every single corner of Africa by European powers, beginning in the nineteenth century. In this course we will be exploring the various ways in which these developments have been shaping African societies, politics, and cultures over this long period of time. [Pre-1800, Global] [C, HSS]

HIST 23200 - Africa From Colonization to Globalizatio Course Credit: 1
(AFST, EDUC, GLIS)
AFRICA FROM COLONIZATION TO GLOBALIZATION: With the official abolition of the Atlantic Slave Trade in the early 19th century, the encounter between Africa and Europe took a new and dramatic turn, with the beginning of the “legitimate trade.” This course will investigate how this change paved the way to the conquest and colonization of most of the continent by countries such as Belgium, France, Germany, Great Britain, and Portugal. We are also going to examine the important role played by Africans during the two World Wars, the severe impact of the Great Depression on them, and the origins of the nationalist movement that led to the end of colonialism in the 1960s. We will then turn to the ways in which the combined effects of the Cold War, neocolonialism, and the failure of many of the first postcolonial leaders created a deep sentiment of disillusionment among millions of Africans and ushered into a tumultuous period that literally engulfed the continent from the early 1970s to the late 1980s. Starting in the 1990s, strong civil society groups began to emerge and, against all odds in Africa and beyond, pushed forcefully for Africans to define their own place in the world. [Global] [C, HSS]

HIST 30152 - Beyond Harriet Tubman Course Credit: 1
(WGSS)
BEYOND HARRIET TUBMAN Harriet Tubman is an icon in American history. During the antebellum era, she spirited enslaved African Americans to freedom along the Underground Railroad and later served as a military strategist in the Union Army. Her life was an incredible one, but she was not alone in the fight for equality and civil rights in the United States. Drawing on monographs, essays, literature, and film, this seminar contextualizes and historicizes the social and political activism of African American women such as Harriet Tubman. This reading intensive seminar is divided into four units: slavery, abolition, and African American womanhood; segregation and sexualized violence in Jim Crow America; women in the Civil Rights Movement; and the emergence of black feminism. Along the way, we will study, analyze, and critique various interdisciplinary frameworks used by scholars to interpret the experiences of African American women in history. Ultimately by studying icons such as Harriet Tubman and Rosa Parks alongside lesser-known women such as Maria Stewart and Anna Julia Cooper, we will learn about the contributions of African American women to American history and culture while also gaining greater historical understanding of the diverse experiences of these women. Prerequisite(s): One course in History or permission of the instructor. Normally, this course is only open to Juniors and Seniors. [HSS]

HIST 30153 - Creation of Trump’s America Course Credit: 1
CREATION OF TRUMP’S AMERICA Over the last sixteen months, scholars, the media, and the general public have been trying to get their heads around the strange phenomenon of Donald J. Trump’s presidential run. As many experts have pointed out in a variety of settings, his derogatory public statements toward women, people of color, and Muslims, his bullying of public figures, his vague and often inflammatory policy proposals, his willful ignorance of issues, personal history, campaign strategy, and erratic behavior would have (and have had) destroyed any other candidate. Last summer, the urge to explain Trumpism spurred the creation of two separate syllabi for imaginary courses on the subject. In this research-based, graduate-style seminar, we will bring that fantasy to life - using Trump and Trumpism as a way to examine the trajectory of the right wing and the Republican Party over the last fifty or so years. Prerequisite(s): 1 course in History; or permission of the instructor [HSS]
