Course Title: Slave Memory in Brazil: Public History and Audiovisual Narratives in Atlantic Perspective Course Number: Course Type: Undergraduate lecture Course Term: Fall Meeting D ay(s)/Time: TBA Additional Meetings: Film Screenings Location: TBA Instructor: Hebe Mattos Office Hours: Columbia Email Address: Credits/Points: 3 Bulletin D escription: The research on the making of racial identities in Brazil and on the history of Brazilian black culture and black social movements increase significantly in the last twenty years, dialoguing directly with the idea of being part of the African diaspora at the Atlantic. The discussion of the content of audiovisual resources related with this process allows connecting the contemporary discussion about public memory of slavery in Brazil with the globalized perspective of politics of identity in the Atlantic World. Course Rationale: Currently the Department of History does not offer courses on the history of Brazil. This course will benefit undergraduate students interested in Brazil, memory, race and slavery. It will be useful for those interested in Latin America but also the US and the Atlantic World. It will also be of interest for students interested in public history and audiovisual languages. Full Course D escription: This is a proposal of a lecture course built around on historical scholarship, documentaries, and historical motion pictures produced by (or with the support of) historians. The course intends to reflect on the role of historians and of historical research in new approaches about the public memory of slavery, particularly in audiovisual narratives. It will discuss the contexts, objectives and contents of the films/videos and how the productions dialogue with African slavery memory and the African Diaspora perspective The research on the making of racial identities in Brazil and on the history of Brazilian black culture and black social movements increase significantly in the last twenty years, dialoguing directly with the idea of being part of the African diaspora at the Atlantic. The discussion of the content of audiovisual resources related with this process allows connecting the contemporary discussion about public memory of slavery in Brazil with the globalized perspective of politics of identity in the Atlantic World. The course will be organized around 2 weeks sessions of lectures and discussion of films and assigned readings on the following topics: 1) Racial Identity and Memory of Slavery in Brazil (This topic will discuss the ambiguities of the social construction of race in Brazil and the contemporary role of black movement and affirmative actions public policies in the country); 2) Black Atlantic, Politics of Identity and Public Memory of Slavery in the South Atlantic (This topic deals with audiovisual and multimedia historical production on South Atlantic -­‐ primarily Brazil and West and Central Africa -­‐ to discuss the specificities of the public memory of slavery and racial identities in the South Atlantic.); 3) Remembering/Forgetting Slavery: Brazil, US and Beyond (This topic proposes to analyze the results of a specific research project relating history and memory of slavery in Southeast, Brazil comparing with the public memory and audiovisual treatment of US Slave Narratives). 4) Brazil, Black Music and Atlantic Slavery (This topic proposes to discuss the historical role of black music and poetry in the old plantation areas of Southeast Brazil to think more broadly about African diaspora and Black Music in the Atlantic World) 5) Globalyzing slave memory in Brazil – history and memory of capoeira (This topic deals with history and memory of capoeira, a globalized Brazilian martial art, working with audiovisual and multimedia historical production on Brazil and Angola); 6) A Difficult Past: The Atlantic Slave Trade and the Memory of Slavery in Africa and Brazil (This topic analyzes the uncomfortable memory of slavery in contemporary former slave trade societies and the place of Africa in the Black Atlantic cultural construction). 7) Rethinking Silences: Public History of Slavery and Audiovisual Narratives. (This topic will discuss the role of historians and of historical research in new approaches about the public memory of slavery, particularly in audiovisual narratives.)

Faculty S tatement on Academic Integrity The intellectual venture in which we are all engaged requires of faculty and students alike the highest level of personal and academic integrity. As members of an academic community, each one of us bears the responsibility to participate in scholarly discourse and research in a manner characterized by intellectual honesty and scholarly integrity. Scholarship, by its very nature, is an iterative process, with ideas and insights building one upon the other. Collaborative scholarship requires the study of other scholars’ work, the free discussion of such work, and the explicit acknowledgement of those ideas in any work that inform our own. This exchange of ideas relies upon a mutual trust that sources, opinions, facts, and insights will be properly noted and carefully credited. In practical terms, this means that, as students, you must be responsible for the full citations of others’ ideas in all of your research papers and projects; you must be scrupulously honest when taking your examinations; you must always submit your own work and not that of another student, scholar, or internet agent. Any breach of this intellectual responsibility is a breach of faith with the rest of our academic community. It undermines our shared intellectual culture, and it cannot be tolerated. Students failing to meet these responsibilities should anticipate being asked to leave Columbia.
