GU4014: Assurance of Infinity | R. Newman

Africana Studies
Undergraduate and Graduate Seminar
Th 2:10-4PM

This seminar examines Afro-Atlantic and indigenous cosmologies, epistemologies, histories: conceptions of magic, space, time, and memory. These texts (visual, oral, written) present anti-colonial methodologies that challenge Western linear time and Cartesian space. They are a lens through which we can re-examine art history, history, academia, museums, and the archive. By the end of the semester, students will understand how Black and Indigenous conceptions of magic, space, time, and memory reconfigure how we come to understand the world around us.
