FYS-Race/21st Century America
This seminar will facilitate an evolving conversation concerning the function and impact of racism on the people of the United States. A century ago WEB Du Bois wrote two of the most important books on race in American history (The Souls of Black Folk and The Gift of Black Folk). These works were, in part, pursuing a mission to educate Americans on the reality of race in our country. A century later this work is still ongoing.
