    Description
    Study the historical origins and evolving nature of Mexican-American Literature. Examine what diverse authors who identify as Mexican, Mexican-American or Chicano have to say about the history, culture and socio-political issues of Mexican-Americans. Literature of more recent immigrants from Mexico will also give us an opportunity to analyze the ever-changing themes and characters in Mexican-American Literature. Various points of view are examined, including those of feminists and LGBTQ+ communities.
