Melville Jean Herskovits, an American anthropologist who was a student of Franz Boas at Columbia University, became a leading student of acculturation and an outstanding teacher at Northwestern University, where he founded the first U.S. program in African Studies in 1951. He did work in Surinam, mostrar más Haiti, Trinidad, and Brazil, but his major research was on African blacks and the forced relocation of their culture to the New World.
