    Description

    HUM 305 Sex & Culture - Explores sex, gender, and sexuality in twentieth and twenty-first- century US culture. The course examines these corporeal concerns in cultural media (e.g., visual art, literature, film, music, theater), with a particular focus on works by individuals from the margins (e.g., members of gender, racial, ethnic, and sexual minorities). The course will particularly foreground questions of intersectional identity and will engage a wide range of evolving academic discourses to do so (e.g., gender studies, critical race studies, critical sexuality studies, disability studies, medical health humanities). Prerequisite: ENG 102 “C-” or better
