History 330 - Advanced Studies: Historians And Critical Race Theory

Institution:

Macalester College

Subject:

Description:

This two credit course is designed for advanced students, particularly those who might participate in the Mellon Mays Undergraduate Fellowship Program. The course-using different materials and pursuing different emphases-each semester examines the development and application of critical race theory, its place within the historiography of various disciplines, and its intersections with feminist, postcolonial, and other perspectives. The course pays particular attention to the development (structurally, ideologically, culturally) of race and racism within not only a US context but also within transnational and diasporic frameworks. The course also provides an opportunity to explore graduate programs and the processes of application and self-presentation. This course is intended not only to further the goals of the MMUF Program but also to encourage the intellectual success and development of students who might be drawn to the goals and activities of this program. Signature of instructor required. Every year. (2 credits)
