AAS 201 introduces the interdisciplinary field of African-American studies to undergraduates. Team-taught in the fall of 1999 by a performance artist and a historian, it counterposes classic texts and the performative aspects of two centuries of African-American culture. Although we will mainly investigate Afro-North America, we will keep the entire African Diaspora within our sights throughout. The course is organized in a roughly chronological fashion, however our readings and discussions will cross boundaries of time and genre.
