HIST 92.02 Nationalism and Revolution in the Caribbean

The islands of the Caribbean have served as the site for two of the most significant revolutionary upheavals of the modern era-the Haitian Revolution and the Cuban Revolution and have produced anti-colonial luminaries such as José Marti, Frantz Fanon, Marcus Garvey, and Claudia Jones. This course will explore the origin, trajectory, and outcome of nationalist struggles in the Caribbean from the eighteenth-century to the present through primary and secondary materials, memoirs, fiction, and film.
