Let’s just start this off with saying I’m passing this class with an ‘A’ plus plus!
The University of Texas at San Antonio will be offering a course based on Queen Bey’s Lemonade visual album titled “Black Women, Beyoncé, and Popular Culture.” Yass! I’m in formation already!
According to the course syllabus, the purpose of the class is to “explore the theoretical, historical, and literary frameworks of black feminism.” *Takes notes.
The course will be taught by Dr. Kinitra Brooks who writes in her syllabus that “you do not have to be a member of the Beyhive” asking that her students are “willing to be uncomfortable and have your thoughts and ideas challenged–and then to work, read, write your way through that uncomfortably in order to become a stronger critical thinker.” She continues.
The course will be using Lemonade as a starting point to examine the sociocultural issues that are most prominent in black womanhood through black feminist theory , literature, music and film.
