WGST 300 Feminism and Intersectionality

Specifically, students will study the interlocking nature of systems of oppression, including by not limited to racism, classism, and sexism, by applying intersectionality to the study of identities, institutions, and ideologies from a transnational feminist perspective. Pre-requisites: ANY 100 or 200 level WGST course, or by instructor permission.
