This course explores the continuously circulating, cross-cultural dialogues and exchanges across Africa, Europe, the Caribbean and the Americas that constitute a Black Atlantic. It supports careful reading and critical listening of multidisciplinary artists, activists, curators, musicians, and scholars who exchange ideas in conversations, collaborative projects, and other venues. It also considers some of the discrepant and even contrary meanings of exchange. Topics covered in the course include: 

  • questions, forums, movements and networks that invite theorists to make abstract ideas about nationalism, modernity, and coloniality more legible, audible, and visible to diverse audiences 
  • the boundaries of 카지노 게임 컬렉션˜polite,카지노 게임 컬렉션™ 카지노 게임 컬렉션˜acceptable,카지노 게임 컬렉션™ and 카지노 게임 컬렉션˜appropriate카지노 게임 컬렉션™ discourse
