This course will explore the relationship between Black women in the US and the Diaspora with particular emphasis on the Americas and the Caribbean. Through active discussion in class and online, we will identify the ways in which women's rights issues transcend time and place and continue to inform our culture and politics. A close reading of four novels will guide our journey.
