Frequent reading and writing assignments will be made.This class will look at how and why the concept of race was invented and its impact on current social constructs. Students will investigate and write about their own relationships to race, caste, and class, based on class discussions and readings. They will create performance monologues and duets based on their own writing. Performances by different cultural actors and storytellers addressing these issues will be shown and discussed.
