CRES 134

The Black Middle East

5credits
About this course

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.
