ETHS 101HC — Honors American Ethnic Studies 3 Units

Ethnic Studies frameworks and methodologies are employed to analyze historical themes through an intersectional lens that interrogates categories of identity and power such as race, ethnicity, class, gender, and sexuality. The course explores theoretical concepts and socio-historical processes including colonization and migration; racialization, the development of race as a social category, and the construction of citizenship; the relationship between race and U.S. imperialism; the persistence of social inequalities; and the long historical struggle for racial justice.
