WMST 8

About this course

This course is an interdisciplinary, multi-perspective, and comparative study of the experiences of women of color in the United States, including African American, Asian American Pacific Islander, Latina, and Native American women. The constructs of race, ethnicity, class, gender, and sexuality as they relate to social institutions and national ideologies will be explored. The examination and analysis of the historical, political, and economic influences that have informed the relationships between women of color and white women in the U.S.A., is foundational to this course.
