CHLT 151 CH -Queer Ethnic Studies

Institution: Pitzer College

Description:

Students in this course will reflect on the interdisciplinary field of queer Ethnic Studies through a diverse range of texts and
media to analyze structures of power and domination, with a particular focus on how “queerness” destabilizes normative
assumptions regarding the nexus of race, class, and gender-based ontological and epistemological formations. Students will
interrogate knowledge production, community organizing and resistance, advocacy, mutual aid and migrations with the field of
queer Ethnic Studies as well as the research and methodologies produced by queer and trans* thinkers, activists, and cultural
workers, radicals and revolutionaries.
