    Without a doubt, significant contemporary global and societal issues are forcing universities to re-examine their curricula to ensure students are prepared to meet the challenges of today’s world. But in these novel configurations of interdisciplinarity, what role does humanistic inquiry play? Join us for a conversation with author and scholar Ato Quayson, who will share his innovative vision of interdisciplinarity in higher education and how this has shaped his teaching and research in African urban studies. Dr. Quayson’s re-thinking of interdisciplinarity from a humanistic and interpretive perspective offers a unique approach to building a truly inclusive and holistic university curriculum for the 21st century.

  • 10th Annual AADS Humanities Afternoon - Brownstones to Beloved: Diasporic Crossings in the Works of Toni Morrison and Paule Marshall by African & African Diaspora Studies Program, Florida International University

    10th Annual AADS Humanities Afternoon - Brownstones to Beloved: Diasporic Crossings in the Works of Toni Morrison and Paule Marshall

    African & African Diaspora Studies Program, Florida International University

    The 10th Annual AADS Humanities Afternoon will recognize the work of two trailblazing Black women writers who have made groundbreaking contributions to the development of the African Diasporic literacy tradition. Both Marshall and Morrison have centered the role of women, not just as cultural bearers of the African presence in the Americas, but as key actors in the preservation of our cultural historiography, our hopes and dreams, our brilliance and virtuosity, our spirit of resilience and transformation against seemingly impossible odds.
