  • 1 After Slavery & Reconstruction: the Black Struggle in the U.S. for Freedom, Equality, and Self-Realization* —A Bibliogr
    After Slavery & Reconstruction: The Black Struggle in the U.S. for Freedom, Equality, and Self-Realization* —A Bibliography Patrick S. O’Donnell (2020) Jacob Lawrence, Library, 1966 Apologia— Several exceptions notwithstanding (e.g., some titles treating the Reconstruction Era), this bibliography begins, roughly, with the twentieth century. I have not attempted to comprehensively cover works of nonfiction or the arts generally but, once more, I have made— and this time, a fair number of—exceptions by way of providing a taste of the requisite material. So, apart from the constraints of most of my other bibliographies: books, in English, these particular constraints are intended to keep the bibliography to a fairly modest length (around one hundred pages). This compilation is far from exhaustive, although it endeavors to be representative of the available literature, whatever the influence of my idiosyncratic beliefs and 1 preferences. I trust the diligent researcher will find titles on particular topics or subject areas by browsing carefully through the list. I welcome notice of titles by way of remedying any deficiencies. Finally, I have a separate bibliography on slavery, although its scope is well beyond U.S. history. * Or, if you prefer, “self-fulfillment and human flourishing (eudaimonia).” I’m not here interested in the question of philosophical and psychological differences between these concepts (i.e., self- realization and eudaimonia) and the existing and possible conceptions thereof, but more simply and broadly in their indispensable significance in reference to human nature and the pivotal metaphysical and moral purposes they serve in our critical and evaluative exercises (e.g., and after Amartya Sen and Martha Nussbaum, in employing criteria derived from the notion of ‘human capabilities and functionings’) as part of our individual and collective historical quest for “the Good.” However, I might note that all of these concepts assume a capacity for self- determination.

  • CAS Antiracist Curriculum Development Initiative
    The Antiracist Curriculum Development Initiative in the College of Arts and Sciences Universities can play a vital dual role in combatting racism as centers for research as well as key formative institutions in the lives of the next generation of engaged citizens and policymakers. Many faculty have asked how to do this better. Our students, too, have asked us for more courses that take an antiracist perspective. Indeed, the times demand it: as an intellectual issue, as an educational issue, and as a moral issue. Purpose of this Document Our students’ connections to one another and to our institution can be nourished and strengthened by their classroom experiences but can also be diminished and weakened. This document is intended to give faculty motivation, strategies, and resources to do the challenging work of making their pedagogy and praxis more inclusive and move toward antiracist ideals. For all faculty, this work involves self-reflection, humility, and a willingness to teach our students differently from how we were taught. The College proposes to lighten the workload involved in further developing our teaching by sharing the work. This initiative seeks an increase in the number of CAS courses that take an antiracist perspective in content and pedagogy. We already have many, a signal contribution to the university produced by the hard work of so many dedicated College faculty whose efforts we recognize and respect. While we unconditionally support faculty autonomy over their teaching and the principle of academic freedom, as a collective, we can do more to apply academic rigor to investigating structures of systemic racism and white supremacy in society and in our academic disciplines.
