Students will learn about important historical and contemporary figures and events that collectively contribute to what makes African American identity a part of who we are as a nation and beyond. The knowledge acquired in the African American studies minor will prepare students for graduate work and careers in a variety of areas, including academics, arts and culture organizations, government, public policy, the nonprofit sector, and professional careers.
