3 pages in length. To study a people is to examine an entire spectrum of social, political, cultural and religious aspects that together provide a inclusive representation. The origin and path of African American studies encompasses myriad accounts of an oppressed people whose ultimate consequence of having darker skin was to lose their autonomy as both individuals and an entire race. As such, the objectives of African American studies is to educate and perpetuate the mountainous struggles that challenged the inner fortitude of each black man, woman and child who was cast into slavery nearly xox years ago. To ignore or otherwise allow such painful historic episodes of pain and suffering to simply fade away with the passage of time is to dishonor the entire culture not once but twice.
