Fall Course Offering: WMGS/LACS 221-01 Afro-European Feminisms

This course looks at the social movements and cultural production of women and gender minorities with Afro-European identities, with an emphasis on the diasporas of North and West Africa. In addition to critical works, readings may include fiction by Léonora Miano, May Ayim, and Assia Djebar, documentaries by Amandine Gay and Dagmar Schultz, and various podcasts and interviews. Key topics will include the relationship between anticolonial struggles and contemporary activism, colonial stereotypes, the influence of US-based black feminist thought on European black feminisms, debates in feminist historiography, and cultural constructions of gender and race.
