In this multidisciplinary approach to Africa's civilizations and cultures, students will gain knowledge of African history and its interactions with the Western world. Students will gain an understanding of structures, systems, and interrelationships between and across the nations of the continent through an exploration of the history of colonization and its impacts; different geographic regions of the continent; and a variety of literary and journalistic texts. Students also will explore such issues as sustainability and well-being by bringing in shared resources on such topical issues as disease prevention and spread, climate change, family and kinship networks, women and development, religion, and literature. Students engage in discussions, prepare case studies, and write short essays and a research paper, and prepare a visual presentation based on some aspect of their research.This course was previously HIS-243344 African History and Culture. Prerequisites: Introductory coursework in world history, advanced level research and writing skills.
