Course Information

Description

This course explores the African diaspora in Latin America and the Caribbean. Home to the largest Afro-descendant population outside the African continent, the region offers a powerful lens for understanding global history, politics, and culture. Because Latin America and the Caribbean were deeply connected to major European imperial powers (Spanish, Portuguese, French, Dutch, and British), the course approaches the region's past, present and future as central to the making of the modern world.
