AFRICAN AMERICAN PRINT CULTURE: This course will explore the longstanding tradition of the Black Press in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. From its early overt political demands of abolition, African American citizenship, and voting rights; to its establishment of the African American literary tradition and various forms of cultural expression and influence, this course encourages inquiry beyond simple questions of authorship and proposes more complex interrogations of readership, circulation, collaboration, dissemination, and innovation. Undoubtedly, the Black press has had profound impacts on African American life and American print culture, more broadly. Students in this course will trace these impacts through the use of a wide range of digital archives of African American newspapers and print culture materials alongside recent scholarship.
