SOC 372 - Race, Ethnicity and Class

Institution:

Westminster College (Salt Lake City)

Subject:

Sociology

Description:

This course explores race, ethnicity, and social class from a sociological perspective. Many people believe that American society is "color-blind" and equal opportunities exist for all. Challenging this assumption by focusing on the continuing significance of race, ethnicity, and class in America, this course examines how historical discrimination has led to large gaps in income, wealth, educational opportunities, and health outcomes, as well as how these disparities continue to be re-created and reproduced in everyday life.
