FS 021 PZ -Love and Loathing in Los Angeles


Institution: Pitzer

Description: Through readings, documentary, cinema, and selected field trips to iconic LA spaces, students will unpack the stereotypes of communities and the natural environment of Los Angeles and come to their own understanding of this enigmatic and deeply flawed city. The course will focus on communities of color within LA and the cultural and environmental “apartheid” that impacts them. Readings-both fiction and non-fiction-movies, and documentaries will reflect Los Angeles in the later part of the 20th century.

Note(s): This course is the desingated First-Year Seminar for transfer students and students in the New Resources Program only.
