Class Subtitle Amplified Justice
Description This yearlong community engagement course explores connections between sound, listening, and the law. We will address topics such as music as a form of evidence in legal cases, audio live streaming of Supreme Court hearings, the use of audio technology in the courtroom, and voice, race, and gender in the criminal justice system. Students will have the opportunity to work with legal and social justice practitioners in Charlottesville and to visit courtrooms and other public spaces to reflect on the role of sound in our political and legal processes. Course materials will include music, film, novels, and academic articles. Students will also have the opportunity to produce creative work based on their observations around sound and justice.
