This is a bizarre and provocative sentence: "Last year, they launched a course in African American studies that was true to the radical, activist nature of Black studies."
I do not see why one should characterize Black studies as either radical or activist in nature. I would say that for "Black studies" to be activist goes against the definition of "studies".

Thank you for the summary! Yucky but not surprising.
