African and Black Diaspora Studies encourages its students to explore the Black experience from a variety of theoretical and disciplinary perspectives including but not limited to historical, artistic, sociological, anthropological, and philosophical approaches. Students may concentrate their study regionally (e.g. Africa, Black America, Afro-Caribbean and Latin America, etc.) or thematically (e.g. literature and culture, politics, gender and sexuality, etc.). ABD prepares its students to be socially-conscious global citizens prepared with the tools of analysis, oral and written communication, and cultural understanding needed to succeed in today's world.
