This website is directed toward multiple audiences. For those of you who are my undergraduate and graduate students, you will find important course information listed under “Courses.”

For prospective graduate students there are links to a discussion of my graduate teaching, to the background and interests of my current graduate students and to the Department of History Graduate Program at the University of Washington.

There are also links for the general public on African American History and African American History in the West. These links allow the website to serve as a gateway to hundreds of relevant websites on these topics. They also allow access to bibliographies I’ve compiled of the most important works in these fields and vignettes of significant persons, places and episodes in the history of African Americans.

If you have questions, comments or concerns about this website please contact me at the email address that appears above or my webmaster, Jamila Taylor.
