This doctoral short course explores Black intellectual thought in education, focusing on how Black people have imagined and framed the meanings, purposes, goals, and practices of education.<\/p>\n

The course readings and materials (in the full syllabus) will offer a blend of biographical and historical analyses. A biographical-historical approach will allow us to recover the perspectives of key individuals whose thinking is often ignored or minimized in contemporary discussions of education (e.g., Carter G. Woodson, W.E.B. DuBois, Alain Locke, Booker T. Washington, Anna Julia Cooper, Nannie Helen Burroughs, Septima Clark, Edgar Epps, Mary McLeod Bethune, Barbara Sizemore, Asa Hilliard, bell hooks, Joyce King, Beverly Gordon, Janice Hale, Molefi K. Asante, William Watkins, James Baldwin, Malcolm X, etc.). This approach will also allow us to consider dialectics between individual perspectives and the prevailing social, structural-systemic, political, and economic conditions of the day. We will discuss the trajectories of these perspectives in relation to each other, and their relationships to and implications for contemporary discussions of education.<\/p>\n

We will also cover big ideas that extend beyond individuals (e.g., Afrocentrism, pan-Africanism). Dominant themes in the readings will include education for freedom<\/em>, education for liberation, <\/em>and racial uplift<\/em>. Seminar participants will discuss the historical meanings of these themes, what they mean contemporarily, and what they might mean in Black imaginations about the future.<\/p>\n

Note:<\/strong> This course focuses on what Black people think about education. However, we live in a relational world. Conversations and ideas rooted in Black intellectual thought have far-reaching implications within and beyond Black populations. However, participants are asked to refrain from displacing or minimizing the thinking and experiences of Black people or reinterpreting Black experiences and intellectual thought in terms of dominant white racial frames (Feagin, 2009) and white logics (Zuberi & Bonilla-Silva, 2008) that are often antithetical to Black freedom, Black liberation, and Black racial uplift.<\/i> (Enrollment: 15 max)<\/p>\n
