Course Synopsis

 Please note the syllabus for this course, attached as a file here. SYLLABUS RACE GENDER CLASS 2016 . v1 . December 6.docx

This syllabus will necessarily undergo some revision as the seminar gets underway, but any changes made will be noted in the course announcements when each change is made.

Required Texts:

 Richard Delgado and Jean Stefancic, ed. Critical Race Theory: The Cutting Edge (Third Edition: Philadelphia: Temple University Press, 2013). This is a “revised” edition. Earlier editions will be problematic in terms of pagination, etc.

 Anne McClintock, Imperial Leather: Race, Gender and Sexuality in the Colonial Contest (Routledge, 1995). While this text is now two decades old, it frames the issues is such helpful ways that we continue to rely on it. The instructors have spent considerable time looking at more recent publications but have yet to find a text that accomplishes what McClintock is able to do in the context of a graduate school seminar that focuses on theoretical issues.

Doctoral Students Required Reading:

 Willie James Jennings, The Christian Imagination: Theology and the Origins of Race, Yale University Press, 2010.
