SOCI 329 Race and Ethnicity
This course examines the nature of race and ethnicity as they are constructed in social and cultural contexts. Of particular concern are the ways in which race and ethnicity relate to systems of stratification, how they shape individual and group identity; and the intersection of these concepts with prominent institutions such as politics, sports, and the economy. The course also examines both historical and cultural examples of prejudice and discrimination. Prerequisite: "C" or better in SOCI 101 or SOCI 202, or instructor permission. Three credit hours.
