    Description
    Provides an interdisciplinary and comparative introduction to the study of race and ethnicity with special focus on four historically defined racialized and aggrieved core groups (Native Americans, African Americans, Asian Americans, and Latina and Latino Americans). Emphasizes the critical examination and articulation of key concepts and frameworks (i.e. race and racism, ethnicity, decolonization, intersectionality, social justice), the application and appreciation of theory and knowledge produced by and about people of color in the U.S., and the engagement with anti-racist, decolonial, and DEIA thought and praxis.
