CNX 192 - Everyday Politics of Race

Description
This course challenges students to consider an expansive definition of “politics.” By focusing on three disparate themes-food justice movements, Afrofuturism, and zoot suit culture-students will examine various forms of politics that people of color in the United States have been exercising for decades and even centuries. Students are invited to contemplate the various strategies marginalized people engage in order to survive, resist, and to affect social change. This class also requires a bit of imagination: students will become creative practitioners by designing, envisioning, and explaining original artifacts that relate to course themes.
