BL ST 109 - Empire: the Geopolitics of Race
Examines the historical and contemporary role of the United States' foreign policy in the constitution of domestic and global racial orders. Special attention is devoted to the US intervention in Africa and Latin America and parallels between Pan African social movements in these parts of the world and the struggle for Black liberation in the United States. Analysis of current foreign policies oriented by the "war on terror" and energy security provides the context for exploring the continuous re-making of imperial geographies of anti-Blackness and white supremacy.
