WGST 402 Feminist Genealogies
3.00 credits
This course focuses on feminist and queer theories produced by and centered on historically marginalized communities by gender, race, sexuality, class, ability, citizenship, and location categories. The theories are purposely selected to explore genealogical analyses of power, transnational activism, and decolonial knowledge, among other themes. An overview of the development and foundational approaches to feminist and queer theorizing explored in this course allows students to apply these theories to contemporary issues and experiences.
