"More and more people," he said, "seem to think that security has a high value; that with security most of our problems will be solved. I tell you that individual and social desola- tion lies along that line. This country was not originally settled nor was it subsequently made strong by people who were looking for security. Let us all face facts. There are real perils in security itself. No one can possibly achieve the kind of contentment that all should enjoy in the later years of life who has not taken chances all along the way. If you young people are going to live life so that it will really pay out, you will have to live it with courage, in the spirit of adven- ture, and at times at your peril."

    Black Thought and the Long Fight for Freedom: From the Antebellum Period to the Black Lives Matter Movement 21:512: 391 Fall 2016 Instructor: Dr. M. Cooper Email: [email protected] Mondays & Wednesdays: 10:00 AM-11:20 AM Room: 348 Conklin Hall Office Hours: Mondays 1:20 PM-2:20 PM; Wednesdays 2:20 PM-3:20 PM, 353 Conklin Hall Course Description This undergraduate seminar examines a diverse group of black intellectuals' formulations of ideologies and theories relative to racial, economic and gender oppression within the context of dominant intellectual trends. The intellectuals featured in the course each contributed to the evolution of black political thought, and posited social criticisms designed to undermine racial and gender oppression, and labor exploitation around the world. This group of black intellectuals' work will be analyzed paying close attention to the way that each intellectual inverts dominant intellectual trends, and/or uses emerging social scientific disciplines, and/or technologies to counter racism, sexism, and classism. This seminar is designed to facilitate an understanding of the black intellectual tradition that has emerged as a result of African American thinkers’ attempts to develop a response to, and understanding of, the black condition. This course explores of a wide range of primary and secondary sources from several different periods, offering students opportunity to explore the lives and works some of the most important black intellectuals. We will also consider the way that period-specific intellectual phenomenon—such as Modernism, Marxism, Pan-Africanism and Feminism— combined with a host of social realities to shape and reshape black thought.

Mondesire, Email: [email protected] Spring ’14, TR 12:00-1:30P, Moore Building 212 This course is a survey of African American History from the dawn of the twentieth century to the early period of the twentieth-first century. The course will have considerable emphasis on the roles of politics and culture during the modern period of the long black freedom struggle. It will explore major themes in African American history beginning with: the emergence of black organizing, lynching, and the emergence of the NAACP during the height of white supremacy in the dawn of the twentieth century, the implications of World War I, migration, and Garveyism on Black Nationalism during the 1920s, the economic necessity and political realignment of blacks during the Great Depression and the barrier of racial inequality during the New Deal, the implications of World War II and contested concepts of democracy and freedom, African Americans and the dilemma of American democracy during the Cold War era, black religion and the fight for desegregation, the reemergence of Black Nationalism and the demand for racial reform during the post-WWII era, the retreat from the Second Reconstruction, the global implications of racial inequality, to the rise of Obama and the question of post-racialism. Class time will be devoted in most cases to some lectures but mostly discussions of the readings and films.
