DANCE 0828 - Embodying Pluralism

Institution:

Temple University

Subject:

Description:

How do dance and the arts represent diversity? Were we humans born to dance? From everyday interactions to dance theater to music videos, movement expresses human identity and difference. Through a variety of media, we will explore these themes in relation to race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, and other constructions that form our perceptions of self and others. Embodying Pluralism combines dance and movement experiences with reading, writing, discussion, and viewing of videos and live performance. Classes and assignments emphasize active learning in small groups.

Note: This course fulfills the Race & Diversity (GD) requirement for students under GenEd and Studies in Race (RS) for students under Core.
