    This course deals centrally with the social process by which societies create racial and ethnic groups and define their place in relation to other racial or ethnic groups.

In short, the course will be rooted in specific processes in American history, but will examine how America formed groups that are given power and prestige, recognized as real Americans, discriminated against, marginalized, enslaved or killed.
