LC 229 - Learning Community: Family Matters: Kinship, Culture, & History

Four Credits
Periodically or As Needed

This interdisciplinary learning community explores the history of American families and children, from Colonial times to the present from an interdisciplinary perspective, treating the family as a basic unit of our nation’s society, one that has always been a site of cultural contention and debate.  How have changing perspectives and historical events impacted American families over the decades and centuries?  How have historical constructions or race, ethnicity, class, and gender shaped our historical understanding of family life?  The course concludes with a multimedia project on family history.
