LSTU-L 385 Class, Race, Gender & Work Class Number 30102 meets
August 20 – Dec 15; 3 cr. Organized around discussion forums, this
course provides an overview of racial/ethnic, class, and gender
systems of domination, with an emphasis on the workings of such
systems in the US. We begin with historical overviews of
ethnic/racial groups and move from there to political economic
structures and outcomes: the distributions of resources,
occupations, income, and political power. Throughout the course we
intersperse short sociological readings with readings on the
political economy of work in American society. Instructor: TBA.
