African American Studies

Resources and information for research in African American Studies.

Under Construction

Welcome! 

This guide provides secondary source material about the issues surrounding the history and experiences of those enslaved by Saint Louis University,  and the impact of these events and experiences that are still felt by our university and city today. The resources linked here include scholarly interpretations as well as news about ongoing efforts of activists that will provide context for documents such as statements made by university leadership and historical items found in our Archives & Rare Books Collections. 

This guide is under construction, and new resources will be continually added.
