The Caribbean Since 1492: From Columbus to Castro

Credit: 3 hours.

Conquistadors – Planters – Pirates – Indigenous Peoples – Enslaved Africans – Religious Reformers – Independence Leaders – Radical Revolutionaries - US Marines - canal builders. Together these people built a new world – a world forged at the intersection of imperial ambitions and international contact, where the peoples and cultures of the Americas, Africa, and Europe collided. This class examines how colonialism, plantation slavery, the age of abolition, and the emergence of national independence movements made the modern Caribbean.
