DAN 1210 - FYS: If I Can’t Dance, Keep Your Revolution


Credit(s): 3

History is not just about important revolutions, battles, politicians and changing borders. It also is about everyday people and what is important in their everyday lives. This course is a multicultural exploration of the simple things that give people pleasure: their dances, games, social activities, cuisine and other things that comprise a nation’s culture. We see how geography, climate, work, religion/ritual, gender and age all have their impact on a country’s customs. This course investigates the similarities and differences among various cultures of people around the globe, celebrating what Emma Goldman called “everybody’s right to beautiful, radiant things.”

Restrictions: First-year students only
