Reading: Weeks 2 & 3

Manning Marable's Living Black History is an important text that helps us understand the dynamics of our contemporary socio-political and economic environment as it pertains to the everyday making of history. Please check your email for Chapter 1 of Living Black History, "Living Black History: Black Consciousness, Place, and American's Master Narrative." 

Be sure to annotate your reading and bring the reading to class on Friday.  We'll review, address themes, and work in groups to more thoroughly understand Marable's work.
