About the Course

The #BlackLivesMatter movement is the most significant political movement in African American life in the United States in the last fifty years. BLM leaders denounced anti-black racism, white supremacy, and police brutality and reshaped how we think about gender, sexuality, social justice, economic injustice, and crime. The movement is grounded in a long history of African American activism. From slave revolts to the Black Panther Party, from the founding of the Congressional Black Caucus, to the eruption of the #BLM Movements, this course is an interdisciplinary and historical exploration of the BlackLivesMatter movement....

Some links don't open and I shouldn't have to register to other outlets to read material that I paid for through this course. With that being said, I learned a great deal and am appreciative of that.

Very bias and linear. Not many talking points about how this movement affected others outside of the movement. Very simple presentation, which I like. News articles were very biased. Lots of opinions with a large lack of facts. This course needs to be updated as much has changed considering I completed this course in 2024. It's too soon now, but a presentation on where the movement is now and how it has helped its targeted community and the communities would be a good closing point. Overall, decent history but I am hungry for more prospective and closing points.
