Every June since 2010, we've coordinated the African American Literatures and Cultures Institute (AALCI) at the University of Texas at San Antonio. The program was created by Joycelyn Moody -- who's something
like the John Coltrane Quartet. I cover the curriculum.
During the summer, we discuss a variety of black studies readings, and we close with a research and cultural trip to New York City. Students receive a small stipend, and abundant intellectual nourishment. AALCI also provides students with GRE instruction and assistance with graduate application materials.
Here's a glance at some of our activities with the past 8 cohorts of AALCI Fellows.
