The Great Migration and Black Religious Imagination . RG ST 114

Examines how race, religion, and migration shaped Black life in the United States during the twentieth century. Focusing on the Great Migration, the course explores how African Americans used religious ideas, practices, and institutions to navigate displacement, imagine freedom, and build new forms of community in the South, North, and West. Through primary sources, music, correspondence, maps, literature, and film, students analyze how migration transformed Black religious expression and reshaped the cultural, political, and economic landscapes of American cities.
