SOCI 203 - Introduction to Critical Race Theory |
An exploration of the foundations and central tenets of Critical Race Theory (CRT) from its origin to the formation of “offshoots,” such as LatCrit, QueerCrit, and TribalCrit, that build from the theory. CRT posits that racism is embedded in social structure, and also serves as a framework for work towards social justice and praxis. In this course, students apply CRT to current debates around race relations and racial discrimination in the United States. Possible topics may include immigration, law, education, and other social systems. Students explore how CRT can be used as a toolkit to learn and navigate tensions around race and racism.
