CHST 130 CH -(Re)Claiming Voices and Sharing Stories in Chicanx-Latinx Communities

Institution: Pitzer

Description: Drawing on Chicana-Latina feminisms, this course centers story-telling as (1) a method to (re)claim Chicanx-Latinx voices and histories in multiple spaces and institutions, including families and communities; and (2) as a form of everyday resistance and institutional transformation. Along with reading and discussing the latest books on Chicana-Latina voices and testimonials, students will complete oral histories and collectively build spaces to publically share stories and the lessons learned from their (re)search. Prerequisite: any Chicanx - Latinx Studies course.
