Lectures, readings, films, and discussions will focus on African origins, the disrespect of African history, pre-Columbian contacts between African sailors and the people of the Western Hemisphere, and the Atlantic slave trade and systems of slavery in North America, selected Caribbean Islands, and Brazil.
