ANTHS22

This course explores the relationship between cultural practices and power through media that range from academic texts and photography to graphic novels and theater. The course draws from global, cross-cultural examples to address topics such as the afterlives of slavery, postcolonialism, immigration, obstetric violence, racial inequality, and media representations. Students gain an understanding of the key interests and methods driving cultural anthropology. In the final project, students have the opportunity to expand on a course topic through the medium of their choice.
