    Description
    This course examines the impact of a wide range of new photographic genres on global social change. This includes analysis of the historical and social context of photojournalism, art photography, and internet multi-media and their influence on culture. Students identify how photography in new media affects human rights and current perceptions of race, gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity and cultural identity.
