HUM 2200 - Art and Culture in a Diverse United States

Credits: 3
This interdisciplinary course offers the opportunity to re-examine 19th-21st century art and culture in the United States through the lens of postcolonial and anti-racist thought. Students examine how a Eurocentric worldview has shaped ideas and concepts of value and beauty. Students explore the value, quality, influence, and integrity of the artistic and cultural expressions of Native American and African American communities, and of Americans from immigrant and refugee backgrounds. The course examines short fiction, poems, essays, visual art, and music to see how individual artists and thinkers deliberately tackle and seek to dismantle racist and Eurocentric ways of thinking and seeing.
