HIS 3056 - Race in America
Credit(s): 3
[LGPP5] This course will use a multi-disciplinary lens to analyze American racial attitudes and beliefs over time. The course will emphasize the historical roots of American racism, and how the racial perceptions of various types of Americans have evolved as material circumstances and ideological traditions changed. Both progressive and regressive racial attitudes will be addressed through readings, lectures, discussion, and guest speakers. Students will explore how racial attitudes have interacted with such different areas of life as culture, politics, work, gender relations, violence, religion and ethnicity to shape profoundly twenty-first century America.
Prerequisites: This course is offered every even-numbered fall.
