The Office of Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Anti-racism is currently providing a list of classes featuring substantial Black content, including cultures, histories, languages, and politics.
While this project is a work in progress, our goal is to temporarily help students access an online database of these offerings. This resource will aid those interested in these critical areas in finding relevant academic opportunities.
For a full listing of Indigenous courses, please visit the Academic Programming page on the Office of Indigenous Relations website.
