SPAN 328 Afro-Hispanic Literature and Culture
This course provides an examination of the major contributions, particularly in literature and other media (music, film, visual arts, among others), of Afro-Hispanic culture in the Americas from colonial times to the present. By studying texts produced by Afro-Hispanic and non Afro-Hispanic authors, we will also explore how race and ethnicity are constructed, deconstructed or appropriated, and how this
cultural corpus fit within our current Latin American cultural canon and identity.
