POLS 338 - Black Lives Matter: Making A Movement4.00 credit hours
Since 2013, Black Lives Matter (BLM) has evolved from a hashtag to a series of protests to a social movement that some now deem the largest and most widespread in U.S. history. This course examines the key ideas, institutions, individuals and moments that shaped the movement. Central topics include: BLM’s intellectual roots among Black activists, thinkers, writers and artists; the conditions of racial inequality that drove BLM’s emergence; the movement’s history and activists’ varied tactics; and the varied forms of repression and violence the movement has faced.
