5.00 cr. |
Environmental Justice examines the intersections between environment and socio-economic inequalities. Environmental Justice Cultural Studies is an American Studies approach to Environmental Justice emphasizing literary and cultural productions and examining the intersections of ideology and representation with the uneven production of environmental privilege and environmental harms. We will examine the intersections of Environmental Justice Cultural Studies with fields like disability studies, postcolonial studies, ethnic studies, and gender and sexuality studies. We will read excerpts from works like Rob Nixon’s Slow Violence and the Environmentalism of the Poor, Jay Sibara and Sarah J. Ray’s Disability Studies and the Environmental Humanities, David Pellow’s What is Critical Environmental Justice, Catriona Mortimer-Sandilands and Bruce Erikson’s Queer Ecologies: Sex, Nature, Politics, Desire, and Rachel Stein’s New Perspectives on Environmental Justice: Gender, Sexuality, and Activism. Primary texts may include Karen Tei Yamashita’s Tropic of Orange, Helena Maria Viramontes’s Their Dogs Came with Them, and Indra Sinha’s Animal’s People. |
