Dr. Brown is absolutely brilliant. He's very nice and he's very concerned about student learning. I took a seminar with him about Black History and it was so fascinating that the discussions were never dry. We watched videos and read a few books, and wrote a couple papers. The reading materials for his class are very well selected. They are engaging to read, and even more fun to discuss. Of course, the real concern is whether he's an "easy" professor and the answer is YES! Not only are his classes easy, but you ACTUALLY learn a LOT! I would recommend his classes to anyone, even if (like me) you have absolutely NO background in black history.

Professor SarDesai is one of the top three history professors at UCLA. His lectures are at the perfect pace and very interesting. His knowledge is endless and he is incredibly warm. He makes his students feel very comfortable to approach him and his tests are direct. No tricks. Just knowledge. I learned a lot and enjoyed the class.
