    Description
    This course introduces students to inter-disciplinary, intersectional studies of race, ethnicity, socio-economic status, gender, sexuality, ability, and nationality. This course examines social justice movements, histories, theories, ideas, methodologies, and artistic expressions with an emphasis on intersectionality to better understand the struggles, triumphs, and epistemologies of historically marginalized and oppressed groups.
