POST 116 PZ -Surfing and the Politics of Race, Class and Culture


Institution: Pitzer

Description: Surfing and the Politics of Race, Class and Culture: The purpose of this course is to examine how surfing has intersected with such forces as colonialism, capitalism, race and gender roles, the military industrial complex, and globalization. Much of the surfing’s romantic image is a myth. In this course, we will go beyond the myths developed by Hollywood and corporations to examine its true historical origins and its evolution in places like California, Australia, South Africa, and Brazil.

Prerequisite(s): Please check course schedule for requirements.
