Black / African American Studies Library Resource Guide

Welcome!

“Research is formalized curiosity. It is poking and prying with a purpose. It is a seeking that he who wishes may know the cosmic secrets of the world and they that dwell therein.” 

--Zora Neale Hurston, Dust Tracks on a Road

The librarians and faculty who collaborated on this guide intend for it to provide resources to those interested in learning and thinking critically about the experiences of various African American groups, including:

  • Affirmation of culture, identity, and contributions to literature, academia, and the arts
  • Providing material for discussions of systemic racism, nativism and xenophobia, injustice, discrimination, and transformational change
