Class Notes

Sexual Violence Activism: Family, Community, Nation, World
From the instructor: Analyzes sexual violence as a social issue embedded in structures of power in four sites: the family, the community, the nation, and the world. Throughout the course, students will work together to create case studies profiling different activist groups that are resisting sexual violence. Course materials will include primary and secondary readings from a variety of academic fields (history, anthropology, critical race and ethnic studies, sociology, feminist studies) along with audio-visual materials such as music and film.
