This course is an exploration of the history, literature, art, and culture of Latina women in the United States. We will focus especially on Chicana, Nuyorican/Puerto Rican, Cuban American, and Caribbean texts, as well as Central American and South American issues as they relate to the experiences and struggles of women in the United States. The class has a comparative race and ethnic studies framework and significantly addresses issues of racism, class, sexuality, sexual diversity, misogyny, and homophobia. Class materials will include art, historiographic and expository essays, novels, narratives, documentary films, and autobiographical/ethnographic writing.
