Abstract
This course examines the social, political, and cultural history of the South as a distinct region of the United States. The central dilemma in the South's historical development has been the issue of race; this course, therefore, focuses on the evolving relationship between black and white southerners from the seventeenth to the late twentieth century. The course includes discussions of the origins of a slave society, the culture of slavery and the Old South, the Civil War and Reconstruction, social and political change in the New South, the Civil Rights Movement, and the rise of the Sunbelt.
