HISC 531 - Migration and Community 3 s.h.


This course explores narratives of migration and community in American history. Through the analysis of historical works, literature, images and objects, students examine migrations, both trans-national and internal, that have shaped the United States. Students investigate diasporic communities, as well as individual narratives, and analyze the intersections of race, class, gender, sexuality, ability, and ethnicity among various groups that have settled in urban, suburban, and rural places. Class assignments and exercise encourage students to develop competency and hone inclusive strategies for museums to work effectively with the diverse populations they serve. A-E Only.
