Notes:

This course explores more than three hundred years of African American writing on the concept of freedom. From slave spirituals to postmodern poetry, from the earliest published volumes of black verse to some of the most recent, from slave narratives and calls for revolution to domestic fiction and landmarks in queer black writing, “freedom” has meant many different things to many different people, and in this course we will read a wide range of texts that investigate these meanings.
