Prep
- Paul Gilroy, ‘It’s a Family Affair’, in Neal and Forman (2012). keywords: Afrocentrism; authenticity; black nationalism; diaspora; essentialism; hybridity.
We ended up using the whole period to review the Story Maps Proposal Outline assignment, so please review the Gilroy chapter for Monday and we’ll dive into that.
Take a close look at the lyrics that Gilroy cites as well as his reading of them: these readings will give us an opportunity to discuss the role of qualitative data in your Story Maps projects.
