LAS 3360 Latina Testimonios

This course is an introduction to the similarities and differences in migration/annexation/coloniation and consequential social status informing the experience of Latinas in the United States. Special attention is paid to sujectivity and representation by social signifers such as gender, race, class, and sexualities. While the course title assumes a pan-ethnic label, the course explores the complex diversity of women who trace their ancestry to geographical areas including Mexico, Puerto Rico, Cuba, and the Dominican Republic.
