Rarely do media reports focus on the lives and experiences of African youths. When youth are discussed, they are often presented from the dominant trope of victimhood. The complexities and diversities of their life experiences are neglected. We will interrogate the experiences of African youth, including their role in the struggles for independence. What factors give rise to youth social movements? What are their successes and failures? Enrollment Limit:25 Instructor: H. Ballah Prerequisites & Notes Identical to HIST 271.
