Expanded Course Description
The question of race, and the problem of racism, is one of the most significant and controversial topics in the U.S. today. While the racial conversation dominates American culture, few consider the history and significance of race beyond the U.S. This course examines race from a fresh, much less examined, perspective – that of Russia, the Soviet Union, and the present post-Soviet world. Yet another unique perspective we will employ in this course is that of the humanities: we will explore race, not through the more common lenses of current politics or the social sciences, but through the more subtle, but nevertheless profoundly significant, articulations of race in literature, film, television, and media.
