Section Info:
Topic: "Race, Gender, and Sexuality." Meets with AAS 199 sect FN and GWS 199 sect FNO. This course is designed to introduce students to some of the issues that emerge at the intersections of race, gender, class, sexuality, dis/ability, and nation. The course will be taught through comparative perspectives in terms of both race and nation; so, students will be introduced to issues of gender and sexuality across many racialized and nationalized groups including African Americans, Asian Americans, Latinos, and indigenous peoples. The goal of the course is to introduce students to the intersectional and comparative frameworks and methodologies, debates in these fields, and to the critical language that surrounds those debates. The course will draw from a wide range of sources including music, plays, film, anthropological texts, fiction, and poetry. The course provides both an historical and contemporary context for thinking through topics including representation, war, globalization, labor, imperialism, nation building, and racialization.
