Course Catalog Description
Advanced seminar in Chicanx and Latinx Studies with topic to be announced at the beginning of each semester.
Class Description
This capstone course will explore the transformative power of education as a catalyst for liberation and social change. Grounded in critical pedagogy and informed by diverse educational theories students will engage in a rigorous examination of the historical cultural and sociopolitical dimensions of education for different Latine student demographics, regionally (e.g. US midwest, south) and ethnically (e.g. Afro-Latine, Zapotecs, Maya).
Through a combination of theoretical exploration case studies and practical applications participants will critically analyze existing educational systems and develop strategies for fostering liberation equity and justice in educational spaces when collectively developing an emancipatory schooling model.
