| Course Description | This course critically examines ethnographic texts about Blacks in the United States, focusing as much on what they proffer about Black American culture as on the various socio-political contexts in which this body of scholarship has been produced. The goal is to advance an understanding of the larger social forces undergirding the production not only of formations of Black culture, but of knowledge about Black America. A further goal is to foster a critical understanding of the anthropological enterprise itself. |
