OpenDescription
This course accounts for the racial heterogeneity of the ?Middle East.? Ranging from the Maghreb, the Levant, and Gulf, the Middle East is also a political construct of myriad histories and processes of enslavement, displacement, racialization, domination, and resistance. Many of these processes precede European colonization, merged with imported Euro-American racial ideologies, and continue to reverberate in the region. This class focuses specifically on how blackness as a racial, cultural, and political identity is forged, understood, and contested along this vast terrain, attending to how articulations of Black being and blackness continue to be translated and lived to this day.
