Identity and Diversity in American Contexts

Section 64860

  • Note: This section of Writing 150 will enable students to practice the skills of critical thinking, sound reasoning, and rhetorical awareness through an investigation of social issues related to identity and diversity. The course will examine identity as a socially constructed phenomenon that determines differentials of power and opportunity in an increasingly diverse and intersectional world. Students will analyze various groups whose biological, cultural, and socialized identities are shaped by--and help shape--systems of race, class, gender, sexuality, and/or national power.
