College of Charleston Sociology and Anthropology

Happy Darwin Week!

Anthropology wouldn’t be what it is today without Darwin’s ground breaking ideas on evolution and natural selection.

This month, we’re honoring Black sociologist and anthropologist who shaped how we understand society, culture and justice. From W.E.B Bois’ ground breaking work on race to Zoe’s Beale Hurston’s preservation of Black folklore - their legacies continue to inspire us.

Honoring the Black pioneers who shaped Sociology & Anthropology

Today we honor the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr. and his unwavering fight for equality, justice, and peace. Let his words inspire us to create a better, more inclusive world:

“The time is always right to do what’s right” -MLK
