This course introduces students to the interdisciplinary fields of Chicana/x Studies and Latina/x Studies, with an emphasis on feminist, queer, and decolonial frameworks. Drawing from Chicana/x and Latina/x feminist scholarship, students will analyze how race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, class, migration, and colonialism shape the lived experiences, cultural production, and political struggles of Chicanas and Latinas in the United States and the Américas. Topics include labor and economic justice, reproductive and health activism, gendered violence, spirituality and motherwork, cultural expression, and grassroots organizing from the 1960s to the present. Readings highlight both Chicana/x feminisms and Latina/x feminisms (including Puerto Rican, Dominican, Central American, and South American perspectives), as well as hemispheric connections to Latin American feminist thought. Students will engage with major debates and theories in the field and consider how Chicana/x and Latina/x feminisms contribute to liberation movements, intersectional analysis, and social justice struggles.
