Course Objectives
This course examines two related strains of critical theory that have fundamentally shaped U.S. ethnic
studies and contemporary literary studies: Women of Color Feminism and Queer of Color Critique. These
theoretical analytics explore the intersections of race, gender, sexuality and class, allowing us to
investigate how seemingly “proper” gender roles and “normal” sexualities also come to shape racial
categories and structural inequalities. We will read anthologies by women of color feminists, notably
Cherríe Moraga and Gloria Anzaldúa’s This Bridge Called My Back, alongside work by contemporary
feminist and queer of color theorists like Sharon Holland, José Esteban Muñoz, and Roderick Ferguson.
Together, these texts register the distance between minoritized cultural productions and national/capitalist
ideals, activating forms of critique grounded in queered, gendered, and racialized embodiments and
ensuing cultural productions. This class is cross-listed with Gender and Sexuality Studies and Africana
Studies. |
