| From the inception of an African American community in what would become and is the United States, its experience and character over time has been characterized by migration. Some of these migrations have been forced such as the slave trade, voluntary, like moves to cities in many eras, and both forced and voluntary as in movements North. This class looks at African American literature with an eye towards the representation and significance of movement and migration in black experience and creativity. |
