ENGL 1130 — Literature of Diversity
Studying the literature of American cultural groups expands our understanding of them and our place within them. Students explore literature written by Americans who have traditionally been under-represented, including African Americans, Asian Americans, Latinx Americans, Native Americans, and others. Various literary periods and genres are discussed and analyzed in their socio-cultural and historical contexts, with the ultimate goal of evaluating the United States’ response to group differences.
