| Description |
How did women and men who lived within European colonial empires build their lives and how can we tell their stories? This course will explore the ways that imperial networks of exploration, conquest, and trade and colonial systems of race, law, and governance created and constrained the options available to individuals. We will examine the historical processes that shaped individuals’ life stories, the ways that these stories can be shared, through academic history, museums, films, comics, music, and more, and what we can learn from these stories about understanding and navigating complex systems of global power. Fulfills the Second Writing Requirement. |
