S E1284: In Class with Carr, Ep. 284: Foundational Blackness

In the United States, the back-to-school season signals more than just a return to “traditional” classrooms—in a moment of open white nationalist warfare on our common humanity, it is also a moment for renewed reflection on origins, connections, and relationships. This fall, a new iteration of that search in the discipline of Africana Studies takes shape with the launch of “The Black University,” an open public course running in parallel with a Howard University class that initiates students into a deeper investigation of the meaning and purpose of Black educational institutions.


Rooted in our ongoing project to “Jailbreak the Black University,” the course will center on uncovering the origins of Africana Ways of Knowing, Governance formations, and the search for connected traces of Movement and Memory. As our annual Kemetic (Ancient Egyptian) Study Tour draws to a close, we are guided by a central conviction: A search for “foundational Blackness” is essential to understanding and advancing the intellectual and cultural traditions of the African world.


This pursuit of “foundational Blackness”—tracing the origins, structures, and living memory of Africana educational and cultural practices—is a critical effort for reimagining and revitalizing Black institutions today.
