Latinx研究

本科

The Latinx研究 minor provides an interdisciplinary exploration of the history, 文化, and experiences of Latinx in the United States.

项目概述

With a presence in the Americas spanning seven centuries, Latinx are the largest "minority" in the U.S. and reflect a cultural complexity that includes mode of incorporation to the U.S., 文化产品, 政治机构, and heterogeneous racial, 性别, 性, class backgrounds and 公民状态.

Our curriculum includes modes of incorporation to the US, 公民状态, 文化产品, 政治机构, and examinations of heterogeneous racial, 性别, 社会, 性, and class backgrounds. Latinx研究 looks at current issues that affect our communities, including educational equity, 社会问题, 社会运动, 犯罪与司法, community organizing and transculturation. 课程 in Latinx研究 place a premium on critical thinking and comparative analyses, as well as historical and contemporary eng年龄ment with society.
