AFAM Sp2025 Course

Everything that I learn and teach at a university campus should be accessible to my community and not just people that can afford a course at an institution with a price tag in the thousands. Here, I will add what I can when I can in reference to educational tools on race, gender, sexuality, and disability. As I grow, we grow. Feel free to access a “syllabus” here.

This syllabus is not an exhaustive list for all that African American Literature and Culture is. This syllabus specifically is AfAm with an interdisciplinary approach (literature, media, and film). The text range from 17th-21st Century.


*This “syllabus” is a tool of your own making:

-It can be a starter pack to digging into texts that you have not read or want to consider in new ways.

-It can aid you in new and enlightening discussions.

-This syllabus is not associated with any specific University but is an In-House Scholar LLC production crafted by Dr. La-Toya Scott.
