Seminar, three hours. Examination of socially manufactured racial constructions of Arab and Muslim communities before and after September 11, 2001.

Examination of how Arab/Muslim communities have been targets of state sanctioned violence, exclusion, and repression. Study engages with readings across disciplines, various forms of cultural production, and Arab/Muslim activists and organizers. P/NP or letter grading.
