| SOCY 2355 - BLACK LIVES |
|
This course will introduce students to the sociology of the Black experience in the United States. We will discuss the social impact of institutional racism and discrimination, paying particular attention to issues around “the ghetto,” socioeconomic status, wealth inequality, and quality of life in the inner city. As we consider political and social movements for change, we will also learn about the ways by which Blacks have engaged the struggle for equality through creative work. By the end, we will bring our discussion into the contemporary moment and the ongoing struggle to articulate what “the Black experience” means in the 21st Century.
