HUMN 366B Race Relations
366. RACE RELATIONS (Credit, 3 hours).
Course designed to address a multiracial audience
derived from the student bodies of
Louisiana State University and Southern
University. Students examine the question of
race relations in an interdisciplinary setting to
include sociological, psychological, political,
and historical perspectives. Students then will
apply these newly-acquired critical perspectives
to analyze and compare selected texts,
essays, films, and other cultural artifacts from
various cultural/ethnic groups in the United
States. This analytical tool will help students
to recognize the genesis, evolution, and dissemination
of racial/ethnic prejudices, conflicts,
and tensions as well as to recognize
dynamics of interracial harmony.
