This one-credit, pass-fail seminar offers participants an introduction to Critical Race Theory (CRT) as well as an opportunity to delve more deeply into an area of interest. The class will meet for 90-minutes for ten classes during the spring semester. In the initial five classes, we will explore seminal articles within Critical Race Theory. Students are then responsible for choosing topics and assignments for the next five sessions, which enables students to develop an area of interest while deepening their understanding of CRT. Students will work in pairs throughout the semester to lead class discussions. Attendance and participation are required to pass. There is a variable 2-credit option available for those who complete an additional paper. Contact Professor Sarda for more information (sarda@bc.edu). Limited enrollment.
