Course Description
Introduces students to the sociological examination of Latinxs in the United States-tracing their development from its historical inception to contemporary experiences. Topics to be examined include legacy of conquest, identity and ethnic and racial labeling, media, culture and artistic expressions, gender and sexuality, racism, education, immigration, and family. Similarities and differences between Latinxs are examined using an intersectional analysis of race, class, gender, sexuality, nationality, and immigration status.
