ENGL 572: BLACK IN THE STACKS

Fall 2024 · Section 001 · CRN 16815

This course historicizes Black archive studies and its theoretical development across literary studies. Inspired by Schomburg’s call “to dig up our past,” it explores how black writers, collectors, and librarians across the twentieth-century resisted long-standing efforts to bury, silence, and overwrite black experience and their contributions.
