WRIT 304 : Writing Race

What is race? How is race assigned, assumed, constructed, performed, and consumed? Aiming to develop complex understandings of the production of race and its effects, this course may explore the intersections of race with gender, sexuality, class, indigeneity, nation, citizenship, and other modalities of power; intercede into the racial politics of representation and public discourse; and generate theoretically informed critical/creative interventions that grapple with the vexed issues of race.
