Help support undergraduate and graduate students committed to producing, refining, and advancing knowledge of Black people.
You can support an intellectual community committed to producing, refining and advancing knowledge of Black people in the United States, the Caribbean, Latin America, Europe, and Africa.
The undergraduate degree program in African American Studies exposes students to the social, political, and cultural history of African-descended people in the modern world. The Ph.D. program in African Diaspora Studies is the first such program of its kind, training students to theorize about the African Diaspora and racialized Blackness across history, social institutions, culture, and geographical location.
Undergraduate and graduate students learn to examine the world from an Africana-informed perspective, examine various forms and inequality, and achieve their personal and professional goals. Department members are united by a relentless commitment to pushing the boundaries of knowledge through excellence in scholarship and pedagogy that are at once interdisciplinary and innovative.
