Department of African American and Africana Studies

Practicing Possibility
In our current time, it is urgent that we not just dream/imagine a different future, but that we also cultivate a practice of collectivity, care, and critique that develops the muscle for world building.

This year the Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies Department’s sixth observance of Harriet Tubman Day, organized in collaboration with the Department of African American and Africana Studies, is also a celebration of the 20th Anniversary of our joint degree program, the Black Women’s Studies Minor.
