In AMCD 200, students learn about the historical and theoretical foundations of Cultural Studies as an academic discipline and use cultural theory to analyze a variety of cultural products and representations. In this course, students look specifically at dominant and subversive constructions of gender, race, ethnicity, national and sexual identities, and how these constructions are deployed through cultural practices and productions such as sports, film and television, folklore and popular culture, youth subcultures, music, and so on. For example, the course may contain units on "nation" and the creation of American mythologies; the process of hero-making in American history; stereotypes and the representation of race and ethnicity in television and film; representations of gender and sexuality in advertising; as well as a section on American music from jazz, blues, folk and roots music, to rock and roll, punk, and hip-hop. This course satisfies the old Human Diversity requirement and the new core Diversity, Inclusion, and Social Justice requirement.

What does it mean to be labeled an African American dramatist? A Latino/a poet? A transgender novelist? An Asian American essayist? A Native American environmental writer? How do the varied experiences and backgrounds of authors writing from diverse subject positions inform, mark, and/or transform their writing? How do the works of these writers fit into, conflict with, actively resist, or even redefine the American Literary canon as it has been traditionally understood? These questions and more will be explored in a chronological framework through extensive reading of literature from: a) American communities of color; b) postcolonial peoples; c) immigrant and/or diasporic peoples; or d) LGBTQ communities. This course will focus on the literary and cultural texts of one or more of these groups with an emphasis on the cultural, political, and historical contexts that surround them. This course fulfills the Historical Perspectives requirement in the English major, and the Human Diversity Requirement in the Core Curriculum. It is pending approval to satisfy the Integration in the Humanities and the Diversity, Inclusion, and Social Justice requirements in the new core program. Prerequisites: ENGL 121 or ENGL 201, 202, 203 or 204. NOTE: For students under the current degree program who started the core literature/writing requirement with ENGL 121, you will need to complete an ENGL 201-204 class in order to fulfill that core requirement--this course will not fulfill that requirement. However, students under the current degree program who started the core literature/writing requirement with an ENGL 201-204 or 206 class may take this course to complete their core literature/writing requirement.

In BORDERLANDS/LA FRONTERA, Gloria Anzaldúa writes about being “caught between worlds, a no man’s land….A hybrid, a mixture, a mestiza: ‘Alienated from her mother culture, “alien” in the dominant culture, the woman of color [is] caught between…the spaces between the different worlds she inhabits.’” How do gender, race, sexuality, ethnicity, religion, and cultural identity intersect to make particular women feel that they are without a place of belonging? How does someone who occupies a liminal space shape her own identity? To what degrees are marginal women's identities shaped for them by others? How, in short, do women build viable lives in "no man's land"? These and many more questions about liminality and intersectionality will be at the forefront, since all the texts we will explore this semester will center on women whose lives involve the difficult negotiations of the border-dweller. This course satisfies both the core Human Diversity requirement (under the current core program) and the Diversity requirement for English majors.; this course has also been approved to satisfy the Diversity, Inclusion, and Social Justice requirement for students in the new core. Finally, this course also satisfies a requirement for the Women's Studies major and minor. Prerequisite: ENGL 121 or ENGL 201, 202, 203, 204 or 206. NOTE: For students under the current degree program who started the core literature/writing requirement with ENGL 121, you will need to complete an ENGL 201-204 class in order to fulfill that core requirement--this course will not fulfill that requirement.
