47822	Lecture-Discussion	JSG	2:00PM -4:50PM	T	David Kinley Hall	Shinozuka, J	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 08/24/15-12/09/15 Credit: 4 hours Section Title: Race and the Environment Section Info: Topic: Race and the Environment. In this class, we begin with the understanding that viewing conventional American history through the lens of race and the environment alters what was once familiar. We shall see how combining various fields, including the study of race, (im)migration, and medicine/public health, lends itself to new and important insights about history and the environment. This exploration shall reveal how the environment, the health sciences, and race are socially constructed and subject to change over time. We shall discuss the consequences of historians who study the past without attending to nature. Likewise, we also engage in the consequences of pursuing the study of nature and the history of humans separately. This course seeks to bridge this disconnect: that of the natural and human worlds. In this course, we discuss various topics that relate to the environment, medicine, and race, including the impact of colonialism on the American landscape, immigration and biodiversity, chemical warfare, and present-day environmental racism and justice.
