This course examines how 21st century Black writers—in and of the south—wrestle with the south’s complexities as region, culture, identity, and even idea. We will critically engage the following questions: How are Black writers locating or dis-locating (the) south(s)? How do contemporary Black authors remember, recover, and reshape conceptions of southern cultures, histories, and identities? Students will edit and/or create articles relating to southern black histories, literature, and culture.
