                  This course takes an in-depth look at individualism vs. collectivism, examining those opposing practices while considering what it means to strive toward Black ownership and economic progress. Using these conceptual frames as a central element we will explore the history and practice of business forms found within the Black American canon, specifically looking at hybrids such as cooperatives, socially responsible businesses, and social enterprises.  We define these types of business structures as "community forms", institutions that turn a profit but also bear a social mission (sometimes intentionally, sometimes non-intentionally). The class will investigate the inner-workings of community forms of business, looking to innovations such as “Soul City” (the ambitious effort in the 1970s to create a Black utopia), the Black Panther Party’s “Free Breakfast Program”, and institutions such as the Black barbershop and salon, community cafes, and women-owned cooperatives. The goals of the course are to critically examine traditional notions of profit-motivated businesses as appropriate approaches to Black enterprise and advancement; to identify and utilize community resources to create unique hybrid forms; and to uncover ways to promote lived experience and community knowledge as expertise.  Through literature, multi-media, discussion, and hands-on activity, students will work both individually and in teams on a central project that will demonstrate their ability to think critically and practice creatively in an effort to better understand the dynamism of Black ownership.
