    Description
    This introductory course examines a broad range of contemporary gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, and queer issues in various contexts including bio-medical, sociological, political, racial and sexual. Using interdisciplinary approaches that incorporate the intersecting questions of race, class, gender, and nation alongside sexuality and gender identity, we will cultivate analytical tools provided by queer and trans studies. The course will also give students an overview of the history and diversity of LGBTQ communities.
