AMS 325 - Women of Color WritersThree Credits
Every Other Fall
In this course we will look at the intersections of gender, race, and sexuality in the fiction and non-fiction work of women writers of color, mostly U.S. and mostly 20th century, but not exclusively. Among the topics/questions we’ll explore: creating and reclaiming self/identity, family and community; racialization and the state; forgotten/remembered histories; sexuality; queer of color critique/theory; violence in borderlands; intimacy, and motherhood. Possible writers include Toni Morrison, Audre Lorde, and Leslie Marmon Silko.
