CRE 320 #BLACK LIVES MATTER

#BlackLivesMatter 10x10x10  Designed as a teaching collective, this course brings critical questions from a wide variety of disciplines to bear on the issues of structural inequality and (state) violence engaging questions such as:  How does the grounding of #BLM in queer and feminist politics distinguish it from Civil Rights era leadership?  How do housing, policing, and labor policies function to produce racial inequality?  How can we understand the relationship between visual representation and racial formation?  Finally, the course will not only work with students to understand the multiple manifestations of injustice but also to envision new possibilities and horizons.
