LATS-L 250: BLACKS, LATINOS, AND AFRO-LATINOS: CONSTRUCTING DIFFERENCE AND IDENTITY (3 credits)

Offered at IU Bloomington by College of Arts and Sciences.

About

Challenges dominant frameworks through which Americans see blacks and Latinos as either naturally unified as "people of color" or irreconcilably at odds as two competing minorities. Examines constructions of blackness and latinidad through the history of European elites' construction of the racial "Other" and the re-claiming of identities by the racially marginalized through liberation movements.
