This seminar explores points of thematic intersection between U.S. and Caribbean histories. Using a transnational lens, we critically rethink questions of citizenship, colonialism, and capitalism. Interdisciplinary in approach, HIST 402 works to trouble understandings of postcolonial grand narratives insofar as they elide histories of race, gender, class, and sexuality. Topics and themes include: historiography and the archives; labor and migration; expressive culture and regional identity politics; race, religion, and social institutions; radicalism, nationalism, postcolonialism, feminism and black internationalism.
