Sara Dehkordi
Kommentar
The seminar will undertake a journey through the different theories, histories, and approaches of the Negritude and Black Consciousness Movement. It will not begin, as some might expect, in the 1950s, but at the end of the 19th century with W.E.B. Du Bois’ “The Souls of Black Folk”, will proceed to C.L.R. James and Richard Wright, revisit Sylvia Wynter and Aimé Césaire, delve into Fanon’s “Black Skin, White Masks” and Steve Biko’s “I Write What I Like”, and finally, arrive at present-day movements such as Black Lives Matter and Rhodes Must Fall, and the approaches they are built upon. After more than 40 students delved into colonial genocide in sub-Saharan Africa in the last semester, this seminar will focus on what the colonial project generated other than oppression, exploitation and genocide, that is resistance, self-organization of blacks in Africa, the Caribbean, and the US, and theories of resistance and liberation.
