About

Overview African American and African Studies students at Bard College at Simon's Rock will consider the many ways African Americans have negotiated the issue of race within a predominantly white society, using strategies that range from assimilation to separatism.Learning outcomesStudents should take at least one course each on history, contemporary experience, and cultural representation in order to discover how African American experiences today are rooted in the past, and how art, music, or literature reflect and construct a tradition in which personalities, philosophies, events, and social and creative needs are intertwined. Because African American experience is best understood when considered from a variety of perspectives, courses used to fulfill the concentration requirements should be drawn from at least two areas of study (e.g., history and literature or sociology and art history).
