Assignment:
And how much have we been learning about Black Thought & Culture? So far you have dived deep into critical analysis of blackness, restocking shelves, putting items in your cart, and now, as you've immersed yourself in this exploration of black culture in America, you're ready to check out. As you draft this second paper, I want you to demonstrate the knowledge you've accumulated by once again sharing what you have learned versus prior knowledge.
This paper should demonstrate your understanding of Black thought and culture from Units 4-6, from the Harlem Renaissance to Black Power & The Audacity of Hip Hop. What aspects of culture did black folk bring? What intellectual contributions did they offer? What role did various laws play? In what ways was music and art symbolic? What types of relationships were forged? How did the Civil Rights Movement impact black folks? How did reclaiming blackness play into all this? All these are questions to help you get started on your journey.
Use the resources provided for you in this course (ppt, media, text), but also use your own knowledge to examine the construction of black identity through artistic, philosophical, spiritual, ideological, and historical lenses. 700 to 1000 words (no more than 3 pages). You will be using citations (MLA) so please refer to the style guide.
