ETHN 126 - Latina/o Immigrant Detention & Incorporation in the Age of Terrorism (NEW)

This class will examine shifts in immigration politics with specific focus on the largest population of immigrants in the U.S., namely Latinas/os. In the course of this examination we will pay particular attention
to changes occuring after 1996 and the increasing scrutiny of both documented and undocumented immigrants that has led to surges in the numbers of immigrants detained, apprehended, incarcerated, and deported. We will be mindful of the gendered, class and racialized dynamics at work in the development and execution of new immigraton policy, and we will examine the affect of these shifts on concepts of citizenship. In the end the course will compell students to consider the moral, political, and legal implications of an immigration policy focused disproportionately on enforcement and challenge them to find comprehensive alternatives. (5 units)

The course will fulfill the Diversity Requirement, and Race, Place and Social Inequalities Pathway for the University Core.

ETHN 151 - Educational Inequality and Multiculturalism (NEW)

This course critically examines the connection between educational inequality, racism and resistance from a multicultural perspective. Encouraging students to view racism beyond isolated incidents by individuals, this course will expose racial inequality in schools as sustained by laws and formal institutions. In this course, students will be exposed to both theory and research that explore concepts including race and racism, racial microaggressions, stereotype threat, racial battle fatigue, internalized racism, and resistance. Students will examine the extent to which these forces impact multiple minority communities in K-16 contexts, as well as community efforts for social justice. (5 units)

The course fulfills the Diversity Requirement, ELSJ requirement, and Race, Place and Social Inequalities Pathway for the University Core.
