AHAA (Ad-hoc
African / Americanists)
is a group of English Department faculty
committed to the teaching of African, African-American, and African
diaspora literatures. Our goal is to
foster vigorous conversations about these literatures among faculty
and students within the department and beyond. We develop and
coordinate relevant courses, promote diversity among our faculty and
students, and make connections between the
English Department and
other units within the University of Kansas and the larger community
for the sponsoring of multicultural events. We encourage interested
students to contact any of us individually. |
