How has race and racism affected or impacted African Americans’ patriotic spirit?
Have blacks’ historic contribution to America ever been fully recognized or acknowledged? How do contemporary African Americans view or see America? (A land of great opportunity and promise or a hyperbolic, “abusive uncle” that continues to deny them complete access to equity and equal opportunity).

How does Dubois’ Double Consciousness Theory continue to define, orchestrate, and shape African Americans’ journey through America?
