This course is intended to provide students with an intensive in-country study and exposure to African diasporic culture and language with particular emphasis on the city of Salvador da Bahia in the Northeast of Brazil. People of African descent constitute a near-majority of Brazils overall population and an absolute majority in the state of Bahia. In fact, there are more people of African descent in Brazil than in any other nation except Nigeria, and Salvador da Bahia is commonly known as the most "African" city of the Americas. In recognition of the cultural uniqueness of Salvador da Bahia, the United Nations has declared sections of the city to be World Heritage Sites. Reflecting a long history of transatlantic settlement, the Atlantic Slave Trade, and cyclical regional economies in which people of African descentboth enslaved and freeconstitute the majority of the labor force, Salvador is city of the African Diaspora par excellence, where the vitality of African and African-American cultural expressions and social practices are omnipresent. Salvador da Bahia is almost a living museum of the ways in which African culture has developed and been transformed in the Americas. Of course, recent debates in historical anthropology and cultural studies suggest that many of the so-called "African cultural traditions" to be found in Salvador are, in fact manifestations of hybridized, multicultural, and polycentric Brazilian and Atlantic cultures. One of the course's primary objectives will be to identify and disentangle the African, national, and Atlantic roots of contemporary society in Salvador da Bahia.

Program Option: Fall Semester Language and Culture Program Host Institution: ACBEU, The Brazil-United States Cultural Association Highlights: The fall language and culture program offers students who have little or no prior Portuguese instruction the unique opportunity to study Portuguese in Brazil. Set in Salvador, the cultural center of the Brazilian northeast, the program also presents the region's history and explores the formation of Afro-Brazilian identity. The program is ideal for students from UC campuses that do not offer Portuguese. In addition, the comparative elements of the Afro-Brazilian culture course enhance the program's value for students of race relations in other parts of the Americas and for students of African culture in other parts of the world.

The 25-year-old dance troupe burned a sizzling impression on Americans when they premiered at the Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival in Massachusetts in 1999. Now they bring their dazzling, energy-charged amalgamation of Brazilian culture to the Carpenter Performing Arts Center for one night only, Friday, March 28 at 8pm. Tickets are $18-25 and are available at the Carpenter Center Box Office by calling (562) 985-7000, or online at www.CarpenterArts.org. The Boston Globe describes Grupo Corpo as a "sizzling stew [of Brazilian culture]...yet movement is done with such fluidity and naturalness that there are no jarring juxtapositions...Precision is nearly immaculate among the company's 20 dancers, and there is an in-your-face spirit and sense of full-out energy that is breathtaking."
