This course covers the Black Lives Matter social movement, in the past I have used WikiEdu to expand pages on people or events related to BLM in any way or to add or expand pages on Black Anthropologists. The course tracks the movement since 2013 and how it connects to the civil rights movement and includes up to date information on the movement today.
