SOC 252 - Race and American Society


Focuses on the political, economic and social lives of Native Americans, Latinos, African-Americans, Asian-Americans, and whites. The course begins with an exploration of the social construction of race followed by discussion of racism, protest movements, and the intersection of race, class, and gender. A central assumption of this course is that we must turn to history to understand contemporary race relations.
