English 148/Afro-Caribbean Literature is dedicated to a study and analysis of prominent writers of the African and non-African diaspora in the Caribbean as well as of prominent Caribbean writers in diaspora in the United States. We will read non-fiction, fiction, poetry, watch movies, and read theory by writers from the Caribbean. We will critically think about concepts and interpret the writing based on the evidence found within the texts that we read.

You will write multiple essays where you will show case your unique interpretations with a goal to persuade your readers to accept your interpretation as valid, reasonable and interesting.
